Biography

I am a Master's candidate at UWC History Department, originally from the rural areas of the Eastern Cape. Throughout my academic career I have been interested to investigate the experience of Africans in South Africa. At Honour's level I focused on the genocidal aspects of the apartheid regime on the mere existence of Africans. At the current level, Masters, I focus on the education of Africans under colonial, apartheid and democratic times, and how their education is to be blamed for their slow social and economic progress.
