Maurits van Bever Donker’s Texturing Difference “Black Consciousness Philosophy” and the “Script of Man”, was published with Polity Press in December 2024.This book situates the nuanced intervention of the Black Consciousness Movement in South Africa within the international conjuncture of anti-colonial thought and decolonization. It argues that the Black Consciousness Movement, in addition to its urgent political focus, should also be read as a philosophical intervention on the problem of Man that haunts the idea of race.

The CHR was delighted to host Minister De Lille at the annual Reconciliation Day Festival in Barrydale.This year’s production, Walking Tall, centred around a giant Giraffe and Jackal, to tell the story of freedom and education in South Africa. Inspired by the Andre P. Brink novel, A Chain of Voices (Hou-den-bek), the performance included the community of Smitsville in a night of celebration and reflection on how far we have come and how far we still need to journey in our quest for post-apartheid reconciliation.www.chrflagship.uwc.ac.za/minister-de-lille-joins-net-vir-pret-and-the-chr-at-barrydales-annual-r... ...
