About this listen

Since anti-apartheid activism, South Africa has been a beacon for people of conscience across the world to learn from. In this episode, Zoe and Larissa speak with a PhD student, Raees Noorbhai, who is an organiser with 10 years of experience fighting for free education at Wits University.


Trialling a different episode format (feedback welcome!), Zoe and Larissa reflect on some of the learnings from our dialogue with Raees. This chat covers tactics like marches, mass meetings and hunger strikes. Tune in to hear about how all of these have been used in South Africa’s Fees Must Fall movement, and to gain inspiration for the movements you’re a part of. Let us know if you’ve used any of these, or if you’re hoping to now!
