Columnists

Sifiso Mkhonto and I were published in News24 yesterday. News24 upgraded us from "Voices" to "Columnists". Interest in our article is strong -- ten times stronger than what we have seen in the past. Our article is about our government housing. Housing, we say, has everything to do with culture, custom, kinship, and so on, yet the present housing programme is erasing all that -- and bringing dysfunction with it. We may dream of something better, and it is entirely within our reach. The article is (click here): Build houses that reflect who we are.

POSTSCRIPT: It's funny that some people think my co-author wrote this. It is a complete mix of the two of us. Some of the radical bits are mine, too.
