No relaxing on cultural racism issues
2016
Overview
IN HER book Other People's Children, Lisa Delpit explores issues of cultural conflict and the implications for black pupils in America. The incident at Pretoria High School for Girls reminds one of Delpit's work and the universal nature of some of the challenges facing black children in schools. We saw earlier this year two examples of racism - in a creche as well as in a school - both in Pretoria. These do not happen outside the context of society, hence we need to question our people's tolerance towards one another's cultures. To add more to this imbroglio the school called the police to bring in military zeal that would quell the non-violent teens whose guilt was to exercise their voice.
