She was then enrolled at Eros School for children with disabilities where she started playing sport at the age of 12. After matriculating from the Eros School, Mandean furthered her sporting career, gar- nering many accolades along her way which included representing South Africa in ath- letics at the Paralympics in Atlanta in 1996, the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000 and 2004 in Athens.

It was a sad part of my life, because I had to pick it up from there because I had whiplash Grade 2 and my bet- ter leg got injured in the process,” explains Mandean. She says that she lost her car in the proc- ess and had to face the uphill struggle of be- ing able to regain her already limited motor skills, but she says that even that was not as disappointing as the support, or rather the lack thereof, she received. “In that time of my life I was more disap- pointed because of the sweat I gave into the community. When my accident happened, at the church I was at (at the time), I did not get as much support which left me disap- pointed. “I asked, ‘Lord why is this happening? You know that I have invested so much and done so much for the church’. That was a sad part of my life and in that time I was retrenched from the bank where I worked, so a lot of neg- ativity (existed).” As a result, Mandean, who was always in- volved in youth ministry up until that point, took a lesser interest in religion. However, following a stint as a coach for the Western Cape Youth Games team, she was approached by her aunt to join her at the Integrity Bible Centre. “I started to visit the church and got to know the pastor of the church. He saw that I was down and out and then (from there) he had a few counselling sessions with me.” She says that through counselling, her faith and self-confidence was restored. She says that the pastor invited her to sign up for the theology course. “I signed up a few months after that and he said that he would cover the costs, pick me up and drop me and that I did not have to do a thing and I must just get there. After three-and-a-half years, I finished my diplo- ma in Theology. It was not an easy process.

Jane Mandean was born with cerebral pal-sy and despite this, has managed to over-come every challenge that has she has

come across as a result.Mandean, who works as a senior adminis-

trator at Transnet, describes herself as a fo-cused person who is well organised andknows what she wants from life.

“I know my family is there (for me) andI am helping my mom a lot, so I know howto balance things out. I do not feel that youarebeingvictimisedby this (condition). I amalso a very strong-willed person,” says Man-dean.

Being born with cerebral palsy meant thatMandean’s motor skills were under-devel-oped, affecting her legs in particular.

“I walk with a crutch with limited balance

and co-ordination,” she says.She was then enrolled at Eros School for

children with disabilities where she startedplaying sport at the age of 12.

After matriculating from the Eros School,Mandean furthered her sporting career, gar-nering many accolades along her way whichincluded representing South Africa in ath-letics at the Paralympics in Atlanta in 1996,the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000 and 2004in Athens.

She hopes to be on her way to Rio de Janei-ro where the Paralympics will take place lat-er this year.

Mandean, who is one of four surviving sib-lings, suffered a horrific car accident in 2011while travelling on the R300.

“That (the accident) actually caused mydisability to worsen. It was a sad part of mylife, because I had to pick it up from therebecause I had whiplash Grade 2 and my bet-

ter leg got injured in the process,” explainsMandean.

She says that she lost her car in the proc-ess and had to face the uphill struggle of be-ing able to regain her already limited motorskills, but she says that even that was notas disappointing as the support, or ratherthe lack thereof, she received.

An initiative to restore dignity to womenfrom poverty-stricken areas has taken

off and seven months into this project,abused and impoverished women are ableto restore their confidence.ZABra: AFreeBra initiative is driven on

social media headed up by women in theUnited Kingdom and is aimed at collectingbra’s for women in South Africa.Most recently, one of the beneficiaries –

the Saartjie Baartman Centre for abusedwomen and children in Manenberg – re-ceived 337 bras and 49 pieces of underwear.Carry On 4 Babies, another social media

initiative donated 27 pieces of baby clothingto the centre as well on the same day.The items were handed over to the centre

on Tuesday last week.Louise Mulligan, a victim support volun-

teer at the Bellville Police Station says theyread about the initiative and immediatelywanted to become involved.“We read about ZABra and just knew we

had to get involved. It’s a great initiativeand we wanted to partner with these ladiesfrom the UK,” Mulligan says.On the ZABra page they describe the initi-

ative as “collecting pre-owned and newbrasfor distribution to women who can’t afford

to buy their own.”“AfreeBra initiative does recycling of a

different kind. Our wonderful CupHolderscollect pre-owned and new bras for womenin South Africa and other countries whocan’t afford their own.“Wework closely with organisations who

identify situations where women can bene-fit from receivingbras free of charge,” is a description on

the organisations Facebook page.The initiative sees tourists and volun-

teers who travel from the UK to South Afri-ca are asked to free up luggage space totransport the bras. These volunteers arecalled the Cupholders.The bras are then either delivered or col-

lected andhanded to theCupbearers (volun-teers who hand over the bras towomanwhocannot afford them).None of the items are to be resold.Mulligan says the initiative has been gar-

nering such a good response that she hashad donations streaming in.“People are always letting me know

where I can collect the bras and the dona-tions have been overwhelming. I keep thedonations at my place before they are hand-ed to the beneficiaries and at the momentI have a room full of donations ready to besent out,” she beams.Director of the Saartjie Baartman Centre

Shaheema McLeod says they are gratefulfor the donations made to the women andchildren of the centre.McLeod says it’s a “daily occurrence” for

women to walk through the centre’s doorswith only the clothes on their backs.“They obviously need to get away when

the perpetrator is not around and that’swhen they take the gap for safer accommo-dation. It happens on a regular basis butthat’s iswhyweask them to develop a safetyplan and exit so that when they leave theywould have stashed some clothes and docu-ments so they can pick that up on their wayto the shelter,” McLeod says.She adds that the donation of bras, is a

“luxury”.“Last year we received a donation of

R2500 and were asked what we were goingto do with it and the first thing I said wasthat we would buy underwear. Because wewere running at low stock. But this dona-tion will definitely come in handy wherewomen will have the ability to choose,” shesays.“This will certainly contribute to them

feeling better about themselves and to bemore confident because, for awoman, whenyoudon’t haveniceunderwearon, youdon’tfeel pretty,” she says.V To find out more, like the Facebook page ZABRA- AfreeBra initiative or contact [email protected].

FROM PAGE 1She said that she will continue working atTransnet despite obtaining her diploma, butinsisted that she will now go back into thecommunity and reignite her passion for min-istry.“I want to do workshops and facilitate the

different programmes, because forme it is go-ing to be important in my life to make achange wherever I go and to live a changedlife for others and being the hope they do nothave. I have a motto: ‘Be inspired with the be-lief that life is a great andnoble calling’. It wassomething that somebody said tome, frommymanager. He said, ‘I don’t know you for long,but this is the kind of aura that you give offsince being in the company working withme’.”Mandean has even been an inspiration at

her workplace as she says that her office hasstarted a disabled forum where we then meetand discuss various issues where she has got-ten involved in helping to co-ordinate the an-nual Casual Day event in September.“I would like to say that you must go for

your dreams in life. Nothing is too hard, be-cause whatever will come forth will bring infruit.”

The Khusela iKhaya Project have em-barked on a partnership which hopes to en-sure that no young child learns on an emptystomach.People’s Post has reported on Khusela

iKhaya’s project to protect informal settle-ments from fires by the year 2020 (“Burningpassions unite to paint a better life”, Peo-ple’s Post 27 October 2015 and “Fire safetywelcomed”, People’s Post 8 December 2015).Homes were painted in Flamingo Cres-

cent in Lansdowne, PhumlaniVillage inLo-tus River as well as Pook se Bos in Rylands,which Khusela iKhaya will visit again tounveil and roll out their feeding initiativewithin early childhood.According to a Khusela iKhaya state-

ment, “lack of proper nutrition leaves 25%of our nation’s children with stunted devel-opment and this significantly reduces theirability to learn and be taught”.Justin Zietsman, executive director of

Khusela iKhaya, says that effective educa-tion can only occurwhen there is an empha-sis on diet and proper nutrition amongstlearners – particularly in the early stagesof childhood development.As a result theyhave partneredwith JAM

International and Heart FMwith the aim toraise awareness around proper nutrition aswell as to allow the public to get involvedand feedhungrychildrenespecially in earlylearning centers across theCape Peninsula.“Our focus is holistic. The basic premise

behind Khusela iKhaya is that after ourfirst home (our bodies) comes our physicalhome, our community and thereafter, ourcountry that we need to nurture and pro-tect. We have combined protective paintingwith various education platforms, skills de-velopment modules, and community uplift-ment programs and sports development un-der one umbrella,” says Zietsman.“Feeding a hungry child in a sustained

mannerwill make a difference to their lives– now and in the future,” continues Ziets-man.He says that the aim is to be able to feed

between 5000 and 10 000 children with thiscampaign in June.During May, the public with have the op-

portunity to share the in the joy of feedinga hungry child through a SMS campaign.The aim is to feed those children in our localcommunities that go to school hungry.“Only once you are at the heart of these

communities do you understand the needfor urgent intervention when it comes tonutrition. We started something positivelast year and hope to reach other communi-ties also in need. We call on all Capetoniansto support this worthy initiative,” saysClarence Ford, presenter at Heart FM.It costs R30 to feed a child for amonth and

only R360 for an entire year. SMS the words“feed a hungry child” to 42160 and help usto reducehunger, one child at a time. SMSescharged at R30.V For more information send an email to [email protected]. Visit Khusela iKhaya Project’s Facebookpage at www.facebook.com/khuselaikhayaproject.

What do 7000 homeless people and thestar of a popular YouTube channel

have in common?They’ve all felt the sting of sleeping in

a cold winter night’s air.YouTuber Devdondidit, Devon Saun-

ders, spent theweekend sleeping on a roof-top in Plumstead to raise awareness of thechallenges homeless people face inwinter.His #WeDidIt Winter Campaign saw

Saunders living on a rooftop last weekfrom Thursday to Sunday, braving thecolderCapeTownweather, to collect 15 000items of warm clothing or blankets.On just the first night, Saunders re-

ceived donations of 7500 blankets.“It’s quite an eye opener to sleep on the

street. This is what people experience ev-ery day. These people live with the wind,rainandstreetnoise onaday todaybasis,”he says.Saunders was joined by a handful of

street people who kept him company dur-ing the night.“You appreciate what you have when

you listen to them. These people havenothing, but are still grateful. They don’teven have a cup of coffee to keep themwarm.”By partnering with Faith, Hope and

Charity – anon-profit company–Saundershopes to tap into the 55 000 strongaudiencethatwatcheshis content across various so-cial media platforms on a weekly basis.The #WeDidIt campaign video waslaunched on Tuesday last week, with astrong call to action for Capetonians tojoin in social media activism and supportthe homeless through the campaign.Saunders started out doing videos, char-

itable campaigns, pranks and question-naires in 2015. After the success of the 2015

Winter Campaign, which was called theWarm Blanket Challenge, Devon has de-cided to make the challenge bigger to seeif he can assist in a more substantial way.Says Saunders: “I’ve been fortunate that

some of my videos reach well over 100 000views and I thought I could use my plat-form to not only bring a bit of laughter, butalso for the greater good to bring warmthto our world.”A recently released study by the City of

Cape Town found there were more than7000 homeless people in Cape Town. Ofthese, 4800 were living on the streets whilethe rest were in or assumed to be living

in shelters.The study, led by the directorate’s re-

searcher, Lynn Hendricks, found that outof 1700 homeless interviewees, females on-ly made up 20 percent of those living onthe streets. Those on the streetsweremorelikely to be male, between the ages of 25and 45 years, native to Cape Town, and tohave been living on the streets for morethan a year because of a variety of reasonssuch as losing their house, unemploy-ment, or a lack of family support.V For more information on the #WeDidIt WinterCampaign, watch the campaign video at Devdon-didit www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAeYBnFVIxY

Stay safe, warmand dry this wayThe Western Cape is gearing up for what

is expected to be a cold and wet winter,and the Mustadafin Foundation urges resi-dents living in informal settlements to besafe and dry this winter season.The Western Cape, much like the other

provinces, is in dire need of rain. However,those living in impoverished areas shouldbe prepared for when the rainy seasonstarts, says Ghairunisa Johnstone-Cassiemdirector at the foundation.“We realise the devastating implications

of the rainy season on those less fortunate;homes are damp and wet, diseases spreadquickly and houses can be ruined in min-utes.Mustadafin Foundation calls on all res-idents to gear up for the winter season, andbe prepared to keep warm and dry,” saysJohnstone-Cassiem.The foundation provides disaster relief to

impoverished areas and also distributes hotfood and blankets in the Western and East-ern Cape as part of their annual winterwarmth project. In addition to food andclothing, the organisation also assists withwater distribution in the drier areas fordrinking and washing purposes.“In total, we have received over 15 tons of

water donations from Libstar Chamonix inFranschhoek, Woolworths and Meadow-ridge Primary School. We would like tothank these organisations for their contri-bution – it ismakingahugedifference inare-as where water is a scarce commodity.”A 70-year-old resident inTafelsig says “it’s

the thought that counts, because not every-one thinks of the elderly in winter”. “Peopletend to look the other way. It’s no use com-plaining.But thenwe findorganisations likeMustadafin that go the extra mile and giveus a warm, decent blanket and a meal to fillour stomachs.”Johnstone-Cassiem agrees. “It is heartfelt

to witness what a simple blanket can do for

a person. Often, they have nothing else tohelp keep them warm. Our volunteers andemployees have worked tirelessly to tend tothose in severe need of winter warmth as-sistance.”For residents living in informal settle-

ments, Johnstone-Cassiemhas the followingtips to stay warm, dry and safe this winterseason:

. Block all cold drafts coming into yourhome by covering openings of doors andwindow sills with blankets.

. Fix all roof leaks timeously.

. Layer up with clothing – a plastic bagor newspapers inside your jacket workswonders to keep you warm. Plastic bags canalso bewornover your clotheswhen it rains.

. Half fill a hot water bottle before goingto bed – it keeps thewaterwarmer for longerwhen it is not filled to the brim.

. Move your bed away from the wallslightly – this will help keep cold air awayfrom you.

. Do not drink alcohol as it drops corebody temperature.

. Use sandbags around your home whenit rains to keep water from entering yourhouse.

. Never leave a fire unattended and venti-late your home if you do use fire for heatingor cooking.

. Try to eat nutritious, warm food such assoup.

. Exercise – by staying active you willkeep warm and it also assists with overallhealth.The Mustadafin Foundation distributes

warm nutritious meals, blankets and sec-ond-hand clothing to destitute communitiesin the Western Cape as part of their winterwarmth initiative.V For more information, to donate or volunteer callMustadafin Foundation on 021 633 0010 or visitwww.mustadafin.org.za.

NANTES ATHLETICS CLUB

Freedom to Run a huge successEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

Nantes Athletics Club’s inaugu-ral “Freedom to Run” race took

place in and around the streets ofAthlone on Wednesday 27 April.

The race, which saw around 5000runners participating, drew run-ners from all over the Cape Penin-sula.

“I am overwhelmed by the hugeresponsewe have had on Facebookand other social media regardingthe buzz surrounding Nantes’ raceand it was very successful. We gotour 5000 runners and it was verysuccessful,” say Caroline Peters,Nantes Athletics Club’s chairper-son and race director for the race.

Despite the overall success,

therewere still a few teethingprob-lems which exist when running anevent of this nature for the firsttime.

“One of the only things that wasreally negativewas that therewerehardly any bins. We have the RunClean campaign and what hap-pened was that the bins were notdelivered,” added Peters.

She said that every racemarshalwas then required to have refusebags for runners to dispose theirlitter while on the course.“To me you have a Plan A and a

Plan B, and we did not have a PlanB (to begin with). Our (eventual)Plan B was to arm every marshalwith a black bag, of which we had120 marshals on the road. Howev-er, they were seen standing with

their bags for the runners to dumptheir rubbish there. To me

“One of the biggest things withrunning is our Run Clean cam-paign. Because road running hastaken over our streets, I know thatone of the huge problems for theCity of Cape Town, ratepayers andthe public is that the racesmess upthe roads. We tried to emphasisethe Run Clean campaign and wedid, however, we were hurt in nothaving enough bins on the road.”

Peters said that she hopes thatnow that they have succeeded inhosting an event of thismagnitude,that they nowhave themeans to at-tract a title sponsor to futureevents in order to have improvedresources at their disposal.

“Remember – we did this all onour own. There were no title spon-sors, but I think with our post-racereport we can now go to people andask them to buy into this. Thiswould allow us to have a better re-sourced race (in the future).

“Besides that, we had the num-bers and again, it was supportedgreatly by our community clubsand our community. Therewere fitclubs, there were schools and theyparticipated in the 5km. Therewere children’s homes in the areawhichcameandparticipated in therace and that was great,” Peterssaid gleefully.

She said despite the absence ofany major sponsors, the club man-aged to raise some funds and evenhad the medals made in advancewithout having to pay the fullamount immediately.

“When I think of what we needto dowith themoney thatwemade,we need to buy bibs as Top Formleant us bibs, so we were also re-sourceful and assisted by othercommunity clubs in our area. Sonow Nantes is at least in the posi-tion to go and say that we can havebibs made for our own race. Let’sbuild our own resources so that wecan run a sustainable race eventu-ally in a few years from now. Wecan sustain ourselves.”

IN THE GARDEN

Autumn rain meansperfect time to plantAutumn has arrived and, along with it, some much neededrain which makes the conditions ideal for planting.Now is the time to get some plants and seedlings into the

garden.During the wintermonths your plants will have time to set-

tle and develop root systems in order to flourish when springand summer arrive.What should be on your gardening to do list this month:

Plant and sow. Try indigenous varieties like tritonia, lachenalia, ixias,

sparaxis, babianas, watsonias, chincherinchee and exoticslike ranunculus, anemone, hyacinths, daffodils andnarcissusfor some wonderful spring flowers

. Sow or plant winter- and spring-flowering seedlings likeAfrican daisies, sweet peas, Virginian stocks, cinerarias,snapdragons, lobelias, delphiniums, dianthus, nemesia, pan-sies, salvia, violas, scabiosa and Flanders poppies

. Don’t forget winter veggies like broccoli, broad beans,peas, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, spinach, onions and tur-nips – ideal for potjies, stews and soups.

Feed. Make sure you mow your lawn a little shorter and feed

it with a potassium-rich fertiliser to strengthen it before thewinter months

. Feed azaleas, camellias and tea bushes with a handful ofcolour burst. Mulch with super acidic mix and keep well wa-tered

. Container plants should be fed with Nitrosol to give thema boost before winter.

. Citrus treesneedahandful ofMagnesiumSulphate roundabout now; and remember to inspect the leaves carefully forsigns of citrus psylla or scale.

Prune. Prune evergreen hedges, summer-flowering shrubs and

overgrown climbers. Deadhead roses to encourage a last autumn flush.

LETTERS

Driver responsibilityFor the past couple of years wehear and read of the dailycarnage taking place on ourhighways, byways and pave-ments.No matter what our devoted

law enforcement officers put inplace in the form of surveil-lance cameras, personal pres-ence, roadblocks, high visibili-ty, ghost squads, media brief-ings and electronic noticeboards, the carnage on ourroads goes unabated.Let’s make one thing clear:

without the presence of our lawenforcement officials and all thetactics and strategies, driveranarchy will prevail.No matter what the officials

have in place or what they do,they cannot be behind everywheel of every driver drivingtheir vehicles. Nor can theycontrol the attitude of everydriver who starts up theirengine.Keeping this in mind, we

have to be truly realistic andapply the reasonable mancriteria that law enforcementwill never stop the road car-nage on our highways andbyways.The only other strategy or

tactic officials can use is tohighlight or target the individu-

al driver of every vehicle bynotices and media channels.Every driver who speeds;

drives recklessly, negligently, orunder the influence of intoxica-ting liquor or narcotic drugs; oracts out road rage; will have tobear the brunt of the outcomewhether physically or financial-ly.Drivers must ensure that the

vehicles they are driving –whether their own or of some-one else’s – comply with thelawful requirements as specifiedin the Road Traffic Regulationsor if apprehended the driver ispersonally responsible for thefinancial fines issued.The drivers must be made

totally aware that in the eventof any vehicle driving offencethe driver is responsible fortheir actions.The traffic officials and

transport department musttarget the drivers’ attitudes andbring to the fore that each andevery driver is solely responsi-ble for their good and badattitudes on the road, no matterif they is or is not law enforce-ment in the vicinity.It is all about that personal

attitude while driving.KEITH BLAKE

The English politician and author Ed-mund Burke once said: “The only thing

necessary for the triumph of evil is for goodmen to do nothing.”This maxim is the inspiration behind the

BridgetownTheatreCompany’s (BTC) latestmusical, The Golden Bus, which combinesdance, drama and popular music arrange-ments to educate learners about vandalism.The production focuses on incidences of

youth and adults who destroy and steal in-frastructure and the direct impact of thisvandalism on communities.Situations where things like play parks,

fencing and bus stops are destroyed, cabletheft, stoning of busses and vandalism oftrains put communities at risk by threaten-ing jobs and education and incurring heavyfinancial costs.BTC hopes to use the musical to educate,

entertain and inform and The Golden Buswill be performed for free at schools acrossthe Western Cape from today (Tuesday 3May) until Wednesday 15 June,The production stars Dominique Solo-

mons, Nandipha Zonke, Amy Du Plooy,Thando Feni; Matthew Poole and AphiweMbinda. Joelene Daniels is responsible forthe choreography and musical directionwhile Theo. E. Davids is in the director’sseat.With a cast aged between 19 and 25, The

Golden Bus is a production by young peoplefor young people.V For more information about BTC or their latest pro-duction, call 082 536 3651 or visit the Bridgetown The-atre Company Facebook page.

Teen tournament draws hundredsHundreds of teens gathered at

the Swartklip Indoor Centre toparticipate in the fourth annualCape Town Games.The City of Cape Town’s Sport,

Recreation and Amenities Depart-ment hosted more than 600 teenag-ers who participated in the finalgames on Saturday 23 April.The teenagers, aged between 13

and 18 years old, represented thefour City districts.This year’s games was won – for

the second year in a row – by Dis-trict 4, which includes the north-ern areas of Bonteheuwel, Sarepta,Scottsdene and Belhar.District 4 also won the Team

Spirit award.“Thegamesareverypopular and

each year the competition is fierce.The event gives young people anopportunity to compete in a num-ber of sport and recreationalevents in a safe environment,” saidMaycomember for community ser-vices and special projects, BelindaWalker.Before themain event, the games

see the four City districts competeagainst each other at three levels.The first is the facility level,

where more than 20 000 partici-pants take part in the games.About 5000 of these participants

then advance to the area levelwhere just over 3000 participantsare selected to participate at dis-trict level.The final participants who ad-

vance from the district level gamesthen participate in the depart-ment’s overall Cape Town Games,which usually includes about 640participants.The participants compete in var-

ious sporting codes and activitiessuch as table tennis, pool, domi-noes, chess, Morabaraba, boardgames, five-a-side soccer, netball,Dibeke and Drie Stokkies, amongothers.

“Through this event, we aim toencourage mass participation inboth physical and mental challen-ges, while showcasing some of theactivities offered by the variouscommunity centres and recreationhubs. The event also seeks to con-nect the unconnected and affordsparticipants the opportunity tocompete in activities theymay oth-erwise not have had access to,”said Walker.

“Events and programmes suchas these promote ahealthy lifestyleand use sport as a developmenttool. Importantly, they also en-courage social cohesion betweenresidents from various communi-ties across Cape Town. All of theparticipants are strongly com-mended for making it to the finalround. I want to offer my specialcongratulations to the winnerswho continue to excel each year.”

@gvdcapejazz

Tired of the turmoils of the political situa-tion in South Africa?On Freedom Day last week Wednesday

there was a new form of protest on thestreets of the Peninsula, and other parts ofthe country, where you could voice yourfeelings.Started on Facebook, the South Africa

First Forum called on people to take to thestreets if they were unhappy with the stateof affairs in government.Patric Mellet, who is part of the working

committee,was excited about the initiativethat introduced a new way of protesting.“It took protest to people’s neighbour-

hoods instead of the norm of holding pro-tests in the form of marches in city cen-tres,” he says.“This gives opportunity for much more

people to engage in protests over muchwider areas and indeed to more easily mo-bilise people more quickly especially ifthere is a strong organised command cen-tre. It personalises protest and allows forcreativity and ownership. It can be repli-cated across class and colour barriers orrural-urban divides. Most importantly weproved that it works.”Mellet added that through using elec-

tronic communication technology, scenesfrom the protests in the form of videos and

photos instantly were relayed across thecountry and the world.“Whereas only a limited audience was

reached by marchers in city centres, pick-etswerewitnessedby thousands across the

Cape Peninsula who were awakened to seethat people just like themselves were vocaland taking a stand.“The neighbourhood picket approach

can now be awakened across South Africa

to make bigger and bigger impacts.“People simply join others in a central

place in their own neighbourhoods wherethere is high visibility and passing traffic.“We reach as many people if not more

than political parties bussing people intolarge stadiums without incurring the ex-penses that they do.”Mellet explained that the forum was

started by committed and passionate SouthAfricanswhohavemade big and small con-tributions in the struggle against apart-heid.“Our objectives remain democracy, non-

racialism, non-sexismand freedom,” he ex-plained. We are deeply concerned at the di-rection in which the current leadership ofthe African National Congress, govern-ment and parliament are taking our coun-try. As the working committee we are com-mitted to the ideal of placing our country,constitution and people first.”On Facebook, Zarina Richardson, who

picketed in Rondebosch, says it was so em-powering to have a voice and a platform toshow that she cared about the situation inthe country.“It is vital for the younger generation to

understand and experience firsthand whatit means to be defenders of the constitutionand being born “free” comes with an awe-some responsibility.”V For more information about the forum go towww.facebook.com/groups/1579761445667820/.
