Response ‘The June 16 uprising unshackled: A black perspective’

Nelvis Qekema’s bold article helps dispel some of the ANC’s myths about its role in underground movements and June 16, writes Gcobani KaNgcibi.

Thanks for bringing forward such informative articles. June 16 is one of the most important days in our calendar in SA.

This is one of the most powerful articles I have read in a long time. It dispels all the lies peddled by Jacob Zuma & ANC, about working underground with students.

What I like about this work, there are references where one can verify these facts. We have not forgotten how the Tombstone at the grave of Hector Pieterson, June 16’s 1st victim, was vandalized by night. ANC offered to erect a new one only to put its own colors and emblems of ANC instead of the clenched fist of the BCM and ‘one azania one nation’ slogan that was there before.

One does not need a degree to work out who were responsible for vandalism in the first place. Thanks to Mr Qekema for being bold in telling the truth with capital T.
