No, Malaika, you weren’t liberated by Mandela | Medialternatives
https://medialternatives.com/2015/07/20/no-malaika-you-werent-liberated-by-mandela
Alternative Media Perspectives from the South. July 20, 2015. No, Malaika, you weren’t liberated by Mandela. NO MALAIKA you weren’t liberated by Mandela. Mandela left your liberation up to you. Shepard Fairey’s Purple Shall Govern mural erected on Mandela Day 2015. Criticising Mandela’s status as a pop idol whilst he was alive and able to defend himself is one thing. Criticising Tata after his death, when he cannot raise a defence, is bordering on support for the apartheid regime. As a person who was pla...

Alternative Media Perspectives from the South. October 10, 2015. Lewis v Minister of Justice & Naspers. WHAT is more embarrassing than Kohler-Barnard tweeting about PW Botha? SANEF and the Minister of Justice supporting the career of PW Botha at Naspers.

Energy commons a way out of Eskom’s debt trap? | Medialternatives
https://medialternatives.com/2015/03/02/energy-commons-a-way-out-of-eskoms-debt-trap
Alternative Media Perspectives from the South. March 2, 2015. Energy commons a way out of Eskom’s debt trap? OPPOSITION leaders, including Musi Maimane and Mosiuoa Lekota. Have called for an end to the anti-privatisation fiasco, but the solutions on the table need not entail the wholesale privatisation of state assets. Moving South Africa forward to a better economic future could include the creation of an energy commons. An energy commons that served as a repository of energy for the good of the nation.
