Since 24 February 2022, about four ethnic minority groups have united around a call to stop the war: Buryats, Saha (Yakuts), Tuvans, Kalmyks and some representatives of Indigenous groups. Ethnic minorities in the country have started to question their association with Russia and to assert the old pain and struggle of their people. With the outbreak of the war, many non-ethnic Russians started projecting the multicultural identities to make themselves visible. The question is how has ethnicity become a resource for anti-war resistance? This commentary reflects on the ways in which ethnic identity is becoming the source of resilience and resistance against the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine. Reflections are based on the short stories published in the “voices of national minorities” by the society “Feminist Anti-War Resistance” on the Telegram channel in 2022 (Feminist Anti-War Resistance [FAS], 2022).

ABSTRACT This paper considers the black student as an emerging representative of the public intellectual’s confrontation with history, institutional culture and language in the #FMF student protests. It pursues the manifestation of this confrontation through an analysis of specific episodes of articulation and events where the student as public intellectual encounters an academia that is incapable of comprehending or conceptualizing their demands. The protests animated the emerging black student public intellectual’s projection into being and their confrontation with history, violence and academia. This paper examines the collaboration between the state and university as mechanisms of control to preserve the system and structure of neo-apartheid in a post-1994 South African society. I argue that the fixation with subjective violence, detracted from the greater, yet hidden narrative—that of the possibility of violence as ubiquitous in human social relations. Violence is also used to negate power. In confronting a powerful racist history and systems of racism, the #Fallists reference to the on-going complex levels of violence lived as a reality by black South Africans, could be understood as a form of social power to unchain the forced consensus that has been perpetuated around black violence and black ineptitude.

This article examines and problematises the “rights” of Indigenous communities under multiculturalism debates with reference to the San community popularly known as “Basarwa” or “Bushmen” in Botswana, paying particular attention to the tension between perceived government effort to accommodate this community and the concomitant violence inflicted upon its members. The article refers to the Sesana and Others v Attorney-General (2006) case as a springboard to unravel the two-thronged way in which the law becomes an instrument of violence on the one hand, and a means to correct social injustices on the other. This case deals with the forceful removal of the Basarwa from their ancestral land and the government’s abrupt termination of essential services such as drinking water and primary healthcare. The article problematises the rights of the Basarwa under multiculturalism debates and considers questions such as: If the Basarwa community are contenders under modern laws, which are alien to them in terms of the asymmetrical way in which these laws were imposed over their customary laws, what rights do they have that enable us to speak about them as citizens? In what way does the modern state accommodate them and their unique cultural and legal understanding? What resources do they have at their disposal to speak the language of the law? Is the argument that multiculturalism accommodation gives minority groups the choice of maintaining their unique cultural and legal understanding of the world sustainable? Ultimately, I proffer the application of democratic experimentalism as an effective and amicable means of solving disputes between the state and minoritised and marginalised communities such as the Basarwa.

University transformation assumes social justice foundations that include equity, recognition, asymmetries of power, representation and voice. In this article we revisit, as a case study, the notorious “coloured women” article published by a team of white women researchers from Stellenbosch University in March 2019. The authors perpetuated stigmatising deficit narratives about Black women where “coloured” women were depicted as a homogeneous, intellectually deficient group. The university appointed a formal investigation committee (FIC) to investigate the claims of inherent racism and sexism lodged against the university, the ethics committee, and the authors of the article. We discuss the narratives inherent in the final institutional outcome and their implications for research engagement with marginalised communities. We discuss, through decolonial feminist and critical diversity literacies lenses (CDL), four narratives: the “sweeping under the carpet” narrative, the “kiss and make up” narrative, the “race as taboo” narrative and the “missing persons” narrative. We consider the challenges that remain; institutional racism, dealing with this case from a perspective of minimising institutional risk, the misrecognition of deep-seated internalised racism, an interrogation of personal and institutional ethics in community-based research. Transformation in research cannot be a legal procedure only. Personal and institutional reflexivity should inform meaningful restorative interventions.

The intersections of power with body politics and their historic legacies within today’s systems of violence and domination are central to her work. How do gender, race, sexuality and class manifest in everyday experiences and politics of representation and how can public institutions build resiliences against the perpetuation of discrimination? She has produced film and audio features and published in various journals and newspapers. ABSTRACT In early 2018 South Africa tabled the new The Prevention and Combating of Hate Crimes and Hate Speech Bill before parliament. Less than a month later, the first White South African was sentenced to jail for racist slurs towards a Black policeman. One might interpret the coming into existence of this new bill as a result of the increased public awareness of racism as acted out by White people in today’s post-apartheid South Africa every day in one form or another. An awareness that a younger generation of students in the context of the #FFM Fees Must Fall, #RMF Rhodes Must Fall, and other associated student protest movements, aiming since 2015 to decolonise the universities, generated and forced the public to take note of. A generation that pushed for the recognition of racialised differences and critiqued notions of colour-blind, non-racial rainbowism when arguing that racism and racist hate only become visible once the concepts underlying these practices of Othering are named: deeply ingrained notions of White superiority and Black inferiority on the side of the perpetrators. The new Hate Crimes Bill therefore does appear to be a direct result of these most recent developments; however it is more complex and the road map towards establishing such a bill, which next to race includes a whole set of other categories such as pregnancy, sexual orientation or albinism, started much earlier and was not really a straight one but actually received intense discussions within the LGTBI community about a decade ago.

The national #RhodesMustFall and #FeesMustFall student protests of 2015–2016 at universities across South Africa foregrounded the need for the transformation, decolonisation, redress and Africanisation of the country’s higher education institutions. One of the ways that Stellenbosch University (SU) has endeavoured to address transformation-related challenges linked to symbols and names is with the Visual Redress Project, whose aim is to change the visual landscape of the university’s campuses. This paper explores the reactions of students and staff to initiatives carried out thus far by the Visual Redress project on SU’s Stellenbosch campus. It attempts to contribute to the discourse around the transformation of higher education in South Africa through a look at how social cohesion and the sharing of stories and identities could be achieved on SU’s campus through visual redress. It draws upon and expands on the existing research on visual redress conducted at the University (Fataar & Costandius, 2021; Costandius et al., 2020; Clarke & Costandius, 2019). The paper aims not only to provide insight into SU’s transformation efforts but to also use these responses and reactions to potentially inform future transformation imperatives and redress initiatives in particular on this and other campuses locally and globally.
