#RMF Scholarship Fund and Public Lecture
Following an initiative of the Rhodes Must Fall (RMF) Scholarship Committee as proposed by student activists at the University of Cape Town, the university has launched the #RMF Scholarship Fund and hosted an RMF public lecture on 9 April 2021. The lecture will be hosted annually hereafter.
The Rhodes Must Fall Scholarship Fund is a new initiative that aims to raise funding to support students engaged in scholarship around the decolonisation of higher education.
Simon Lincoln Reader discusses ‘wokeness’ and ‘cancel culture’ in the South African context. He describes how a growing number of people are choosing to submit to the ‘parasites’ of race theory and cancel culture to join a misleading movement possessed by a set of ‘menacing, vacuous, dissembling and ahistorical delusions’. Helen Zille herself has been a victim of the ‘cancel culture’ that is so intertwined with ‘wokeness’, and she has written a book about its toxic effect on South Africa’s society. Reader explores the ramifications of speaking out against the ideology and why, in his view, Helen Zille’s book is so important. – Melani Nathan
