ANTI-WOKE CULTURE - THE WAR AGAINST “WOKE” AND IT’S IMPACT ON HUMAN
RIGHTS FOR MARGANILISED GROUPS. The first few decades of the 21st century
saw a strong push for the fight for human rights and the empowerment of
marginalised groups. However, over the last few years there’s been a rise in movements
that are “anti-woke”: which in simple terms they are against the development &amp;
empowerment of marginalised groups. What’s behind this? Who’s benefiting and
where did progressives, human rights and social justice activists get it wrong?

Millions of South Africans could be without access to television as the analogue signall
switch off looms: The Gauteng High Court in Pretoria continued to hear a legal bid to invalidate and halt the analogue switch-off set for the end of the month. The applicants say that if the decision to set the switch-off deadline to 31 March 2025 is not reviewed and set aside, it will sever millions of South Africans access to television. This as analogue television sets that previously received these analogue services
will be blank, and will not be able to access any television broadcasts.
