We Are No Longer at Ease
R200.00
We are no longer at ease is a collection of personal articles, essays, speeches and poetry mainly from voices of young people who were part of the student led protest movement known as #FeesMustFall, which began in 2015. It tells the journey of the youth who participated in a movement that redefined politics in post apartheid South Africa and is evidence of a ‘born free’ generation telling their own story and leading the discourse and action in transforming South Africa.
Young people are not at ease. They are refusing to coexist with coloniality, sexism, democratic indifference and inequality. We need to acknowledge and take heed to their calls. This collection includes works by former student leaders turned researchers such as David Maimela and Asanda Luwaca, student newspaper journalists who covered the protests, like Natasha Ndlebe and Nkateko Mabasa; public intellectuals whose aim was to inform broader society of the key aspects of the movement, like Sisonke Msimang lectures who assisted the students to articulate and find clarity in voicing their ideas such as Sabelo J Ndlovu Gatsheni and most importantly the foot soldiers on the ground who led the students through the police brutality of rubber bullets and pepper spray, like Mcebo Dlamini, Ntokozo Qwabe and Sarah Mokweba.

A call to Servant Leadership
Afrika Mhlophe turns us back to the true definition of godly leadership, reminding leaders that their purpose is to serve.
All too often, leaders pursue materialism and a title, instead of concentrating on God’s specific mandate for their lives. In A Passion for Position, Afrika Mhlophe tackles the timely issue of leadership and how it can be misused in today’s society. He turns us back to the true definition of godly leadership, reminding leaders that their purpose is to serve. Their value is not defined by their number of Facebook followers or how many congregants attend their church, but by fulfilling the role God ordained for them, no matter how seemingly insignificant.
Mhlophe believes that genuine godly leaders have a love-relationship with God that is not defined by performance, but a desire to please God, not man. Such leaders are Christians first and leaders second. A Passion for Position will enable readers to lead with integrity and to be motivated by the Lord, not people, living their lives to an audience of One.
