Education and activism

Noon Sunday 25 March – Occupy London’s Tent City University talk focusing on education and activism. By the steps of St Paul’s. 

This Sunday, Tent City University invite you to come and compare notes with Mzonke Poni - Chairperson of Abahlali baseMjondolo Western Cape, the inspirational South African movement of shack dwellers, who will talk about activism, movement building, community organising and techniques of occupying and resisting through alternative and resistant education. Facebook event - https://www.facebook.com/events/256059027819429/

Mzonke Poni has been described by the Sunday Times as “the face of an ANC nightmare – an angry activist mobilising the township masses to protest at what he calls the government’s failure to create a better life for the poor.”
