@ 20:16 "...This makes you less articulate as a black man generally and this makes you inward looking. You feel things rather than say them" it's wild how this resonates a lot with me in 2020 even though I done english first language from grade 1 right up to grade 12. I find myself not being articulate well enough in both English and my mother tongue (due to being taught english instead of my mother tongue). So I "Feel things rather than say them" nothing has changed since '76

Wow Sizwe, this is very touching. It is wild indeed that such things still resonate in these times, It shows how much has not changed and how Biko just summerized life back then to be still relevant to today's reality. Thanks for listening and subscribing! Let us educate ourselves and unlearn our trauma through reading :)
