Spoken like a true Rhodes "Journ" student, Zoe! For oldies like me who are from a white working class background, ( my late  father was a member of the transport workers union which was a part of the  Communist Party before it was banned by the Nat Government)  we   truly believed that our Democracy would work for all South Africans as promoted in the The Freedom Charter. Sadly, it has backfired on those of us who truly believed in it because of corruption, nepotism and a mentality in the party which gives "jobs for pals" as a reward for their loyalty.As the saying goes, "Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely." Keep on writing Zoe! People should know the truth and "The Truth will set you free!"
