The Equal Education group will descend on Parliament later this afternoon, in a bid to force local authorities to step up their fight against crime.
EE are particularly concerned about the welfare of children in the Western Cape, where seven of the country’s top ten murder spots are based. It’s both a serious threat to life, and education of The Cape’s children.
The group sent a letter of notice to WC Education Minister Debbie Schafer, explaining their reasons for the protest. She explained that children being exposed to violence is now just a ‘part of their life’, and that something has to change drastically.

“poverty, inequality, unemployment, systemic failures in resource allocation as well as a [lack of] political will at provincial level. These are all to blame for the deepening safety crisis.”
“Therefore, we request your [Debbie Schafer’s] presence on Friday 27th October. from 16:00 – 17:00. You shall receive our memorandum at Parliament, so we can make the voices of learners, teachers, parents and communities heard.”

Gang violence in Western Cape Schools

Two learners have been killed in the Western Cape in the last two weeks, according to Equal Education. The separate incidents (in Delft and Nyanga) have brought gang turf wars into local schools, creating a nightmare scenario for the community.
Minister Schafer has since responded to the notice. She assured the residents that her department were doing everything they could to prevent these crimes. However, she did acknowledge the depths of their concerns.
the National Anti-Gangsterism Strategy, as drafted by the National Intelligence Coordinating Committee… is being fully supported by the Western Cape.
I am under no illusion that the fight against the gangs is hindered by our severely under-resourced police stations. I am really appreciative of the commitment and drive by all these role-players to try and protect our youth.
These engagements have sought to improve safety in and around schools and to support our youth. However, much  more must still be done.

Equal Education to turn up in numbers

Equal Education will be supported by the Nyanga Community Police Forum, the National Professional Teachers Organisation of SA. They will also be flanked by21 other movements affiliated to the #UniteBehind campaign.

Structfull day

                                                           A very structfull day In the day was me and the disguting manners of me there was a little baby that existed on the scene.That made me think that it was okay to be nasty that I forgot to say hi and forget that time went by.It caused the menopause in me that caused the outright cry in me.That also got the gift in me and that is no love no care and no existence in the sphere of time.So eminitaing from the stem of love that i dont care it all.But its just no love and care that exists in my heart in this case and manner.In the case of me in the case of the name of the given I'm at rest to care for all the crisis that exsted in me.But nothing really happened to me thats so denying of the love for me in the Christ worship of nothing to say that I care is disgust I'm just there for nothing like burglar ready to commit this deed.To care for me is so a delirium that I cant exist but who can forget only the ones that are so rid

Vey sudden was me,born again today

                                             Very sudden was me,born again today I thought I was disgusted by them and  but I'm not.They are so scared of some people in this time that they don't really care of fellow citizens and partners to say I'm just  a person.That I only care about myself but,I'm not  strange and people are even stranger in the effect of something that is there,like a problem or circumstances that is there.Can we beat it or can we just look at it and stare at it. Or just let it go cause where do we go otherwise,do i shrug my shouldered and say goodbye or who do we tell other wise. Like I'm saying I'm nothing in this case like me I'm not said in this matter of time too forget there as anything is possible.I don't know anything is the reply sometime affective inicence is the reply to them and others.
