E12: Fees Must Fall (Pt 2)—With Walter Rodney Library organizer Phethani Madzivhandila

  • Summary

  • Phethani Madzivhandila is an organizer, theorist, and unionist based in Azania (South Africa). He’s a member of The Pan Africanist Congress of Azania and one of the Walter Rodney Library founders. He’s also a member of MS TCDC’s 2023 Activist-in-Residence cohort.

    In this episode, we dive into one of South Africa's most powerful social movements: Fees Must Fall. Starting in 2015, this student-led protest against tuition fees quickly transformed into a nationwide call for affordable, accessible higher education — and socialist objectives more broadly. Phethani puts on his Trotsky hat to discuss the importance of permanent revolution, inter-movement solidarities, and intersectional organizing across issues and communities that may not so intuitively struggle together.
