Soweto in a nutshell a dream in a suitcase Podcast


Soweto in a nutshell. A dream in a suitcase Podcast EP 69. When fate ties you into a knot – What do you do? Soweto in a nutshell is a preview of Life in Soweto South Africa and a mindset of a new breed of creatures who seek something great and good for nothing, perhaps even free without paying a price for it. Yet! It is not about the entire history of Soweto, as it would not do justice to depict the
true history of Soweto.

Rather, this observation and the understudy of my people is a short representation of glimpses of its authentic strives and thrives, i.e. my heart-felt rhythms of its biological clock and the mixture of modern day blues. It is about the plight and courage of a people that stood to fight for an ideal purpose in life.

This was in the early days of political struggle in South Africa. The 60’s until the 80’s was a bleak period in the history of African people in South Africa under Apartheid. Our people were able to learn to stand together united by a common goal to overcome adversity, and the hatred instigated by white people – just because we were dark skinned. (Note) below is more info - just refresh the page to get alternative information.

We had challenges, but rose above and beyond limitations defined by destiny of a political agenda through a sick system of government injustice called “Discrimination In The Name Of Apartheid”. This was an institutionalized class and caste division called “Separate Development” of African people according to their culture and traditions, and residential allocations in various townships and cities, from living with other race groups  in the country.

Only to end up in 2018 with fragmented communities and tribes of individuals who are battling to make ends-meet. Their leaders amass and secure wealth and riches at the expense of stealing and disguising their looting in the name of BEE - BBBEEE laziness to thrive on poor leadership and chaos the country is facing today.

In this journal my effort since 1994 is to try and crystallize the important parables of its pulse and unique blend of human strength and integrity of character in a way. To paint the inner and outer kaleidoscope of my observations to unravel but the basic unending, yet intertwined mystery of its unfolding yet unlimited but, complicated tapestry; I would like to call living under the “Fallacy Of A Faked Democracy” of 1994 elections.

#Unemployment #Poverty #Death and #Looting Means Black Lives Don't Matter

It should be borne in the mind of every citizen to know that government does not know how to manufacture wealth or create jobs on their own accord. They absorb resources from private sector businesses and tax revenue collections, including investments from overseas companies and loans from IMF. If they did – there would be more factories and manufacturing industries in South Africa, than we could care to cope with. There would be more happy investors to put money in funding new development projects and inventions to boost South Africa's overseas markets to sustain our struggling economy. Our Democracy Has Been Trampled On By The ANC - They Are Not Committed To The Values and Needs of Our Society ! If they did – there would be surplus vacancies in all sectors of our economy to make everyone sick of making choices to take up job opportunities that will make them king of their skills because they’ve mastered their own craft. If they did – unions will cease to exist because the word “g...

Help And Advise Can Come From Any Corner

Life is a School created by God for people to learn from each other. Each person belongs to a different class and standard and each person will have parents, friends, acquaintances or associates and the church to guide them through various stages of personal challenges in order to grow. The process of personal growth for each person alive will comprise of 6 phases or areas of life that form the basis and foundation for overcoming life's obstacles and individual tests assigned by Angels to ensure each one complies and abides by divines rules and laws of nature before we pass on to the next world. God will place people around us as advisers, personal coaches, teachers, friends good or bad and parents as resources to get around some of the difficult passages. The only differences between people who succeed in life and those who fail completely is the following. "When you get stuck on the road without a wheel spanner or spare tyre in your car - raise your hands or red flack ...

My Political Contribution To South Africa's Liberation Against Apartheid Struggle

My Political Contribution of Art Exhibitions To South Africa's  Liberation Against Apartheid Struggle. Isaac Khonjelwayo Paintings and Art Collection reminisce the fight against Apartheid - Since 1976. On my arrival at the South African refugee camp I was received and hosted by Mr. Lefifi Tladi  & Khush. Lefifi was from Garankuwa and Khush, his colleague as I had known him came from Soweto somewhere in Tladi or Naledi. They were custodians and important political hosts who connected local guys with overseas escape travels and routes to Africa and parts of USA, Canada and UK. They showed me around the camp and who was who from South Africa in Gaborone - Botswana. The camp was truly a place of solace for these youth who got displaced in the capsule of time. I was relieved to see my cousin Simon Kgasi, he too was shocked to see me. Lefifi Tladi and Khush interviewed me to establish my plan and intentions for coming to Botswana. They explained the rules and conditions...

Hope To Stand Tall During Eskom Crisis is Our Ultimate Resort

My Fellow South African Citizens, Hope to stand tall during Eskom crisis is our ultimate resort. As we work to overcome the crisis of providing electricity services, we must also address the other issues that plague our nation. Crime, looting, corruption, nepotism, gangsterism and discrimination are all cancers that threaten to destroy our society from within. The ANC's solution to the electricity crisis? A candlelight policy meeting . To fight these evils, we must take action at all levels of society. As individuals, we must strive to be good citizens, standing up against corruption and discrimination whenever we see it. We must report crimes and suspicious behavior to the authorities, and work to build safer communities by fostering trust and cooperation among our neighbors. But we cannot rely solely on individual efforts. We must also work together as a society to address these issues. This means supporting our law enforcement and judicial systems, so that they can effectively c...
