#BREAKING #NEWS: BIG day for #women in #SouthAfrica! After an online campaign and today’s countrywide protest “lie down”, South Africa has announced it’s classifying violence against women a national disaster. In a country where women are murdered at five times the global average, the government is finally going to put real resources behind fighting gender based violence. 💜

SCANDALEUX.🤬😡
edit: ils sont sortis, et leur situation est en train d'être examinée

160 palestiniens qui ont volontairement fui Gaza pour se réfugier en Afrique du sud, coincés dans l'avion. Ils n'ont pas l'autorisation de débarquer.
On attend autre chose qu'un renvoi, de la part de l'Afrique du sud...il semble qu' Israël envoie les volontaires au départ dans les pays sans visa obligatoire pour l'entrée.
Des MONSTRES ces sionistes.

> South Africa has barred a group of Palestinians arriving from Ramon Airport from disembarking after uncovering that Israel used fake offices to facilitate the displacement of Gaza residents through visa-free countries. Authorities are currently seeking a solution and are considering sending the plane back to Ramon....

Spotify is increasing its prices in #SouthAfrica for the second time in four months, as it introduces lossless playback on the old Premium subscription: techcentral.co.za/spotify-goes…

There is a Platinum Lite plan, but if you're already on premium, you'll pay the more expensive price for Lossless unless you explicitly downgrade.

And really? Does the average casual listener *really* need lossless quality??

I certainly don't. #music #Spotify

Open Secrets to face armoured vehicle company in court

The case may have important implications for freedom of expression

^{GroundUp News}

"Memory is not enough. Sympathy is not enough. Watching is not enough. There is no virtue in being historically adjacent to struggle if we only perform its remembrance. To 'stand with Palestine' cannot mean simply attending the talk, posting the quote, or wearing the keffiyeh at the right conference. Liberation is not a brand identity. It requires cost. It requires risk. It requires material consequence, not just moral posturing."

When solidarity becomes spectacle

Francesca Albanese’s visit to South Africa exposed a truth we prefer not to face: that our moral witness has hardened into ritual. We watch, we clap, we call it solidarity.
