Quote of the week

Such traditions that are culturally embedded in the white, male, Afrikaans culture and history, which are the basis of the Nagligte traditions, do not foster inclusion of other groups that must now form the new majority of the SU student body.

This is because they elevate belonging to the Wilgenhof group above the rights of the individual.

Otherwise the publication of all pictures of the SABC building would also be unlawful. So here it is again.
