"A courageously and brilliantly written, tell-it-like-it-is summation of the challenges endemic in education in Mzansi—and elsewhere, frankly—and the knock-on effect that permeates society and employment.
With its entrenched culture of entitlement, patronage, cadre deployment, and good old-fashioned construction mafia shakedowns, the narrative is both gripping and enlightening.
More refreshing still is the hope offered by the author in the way of solutions and a can-do spirit; not just another list of only problems.
This author and writing is one of South Africa's best-kept secrets, as far as I am concerned. Among other things, it is inspiring me to seriously contemplate homeschooling my children—though it covers so much more ground than that alone.
Do yourself a favour and read this work.
Share it widely and often.
Kudos, Salatiso.
Thanks for the inspiration."
