Creativity Pioneers

In times of deep crisis, we often look at South Africa as a model for resilience, considering how much of it the country proved to have through its history. “What happened in South Africa is that we are constantly dealing with a vanishing present, and we use history to eradicate that haziness, but history cannot survive without memory. One of the advantages of today is that we have social media which can hold people’s memories and archives” says Lwando Xaso, one of South Africa’s leading constitutional lawyers, writer and human rights activist.
KEYWORDS: Memory – Sanitization – Transition.
Her last book is: “Made in South Africa: A Black Woman’s Stories of Rage, Resistance and Progress”, 2020.
