 Community Health Workers led by the Gauteng Community Health Care Forum call on all CHWs, members of the communities, students, workers, and all who are committed to health care for all to join and support a march to the Gauteng Department of Health and the Legislature on the 8 November 2016!!
Together with the communities we serve, we want to voice our deep dissatisfaction about how they are treated by the Government. We feel betrayed by the Government we elected! The Department is destroying the health of communities in Gauteng! Many of us have served our communities for more than 10 years. For all these years we have put the health of our communities as our main concern. In all this time we appealed to the department to recognise our work, and to give us protection and benefits so that we can serve our communities better. Now the department wants to dismiss all community health workers. The Department wants to continue paying slave wages, and it refuses to recognise the important work that we do to combat HIV/AIDS, to help those who have no access to health care, and to keep our communities alive. Our communities need many more health workers. As CHWs we have decided that enough is enough! We resist this mass dismissal and ill-treatment by the Department. We demand that:
• CHWs must be made permanent workers with all the benefits. We have worked with you for many years, and we ask you to support us in our struggle for recognition and for better health care for our poor communities. Together we can convince the Department to stop this senseless action and to put our communities and their health first.
Join the march to defend the health of our communities!Date of the march: 8 November 2016, Tuesday

The following is an urgent communication issued in solidarity with the Landless Peoples Movement (LPM) and other shack-dwellers of Protea South, Soweto. It is based on information obtained by telephonic and face-to-face conversations held with LPM members following violent attacks against them last night. There still seems to be confusion, however, and details are sketchy. Updates on the situation will be made available as and when they are received, as will be any factual corrections.
The Zabalaza Anarchist Communist Front (ZACF) is angered by the killing of a second working class activist youth by the Community Policing Forum (CPF) in Sebokeng in less than a year.
On Tuesday morning, 14th of August, over 1000 community members from Sebokeng's "informal settlement" attempted to blockade the Golden Highway between Sebokeng and Johannesburg in protest at the ANC government's inadequate service delivery since its election in 1994.

An anarchist member of the Sowetan Motsoledi Concerned Residents Association (MCRA) was arrested 2 weeks ago following an open discussion with a local ward councillor.
The xenophobic violence and looting following King Zwelithini’s statement that foreigners “pack their bags and leave” spread to cities and townships across the country. However, the recent attacks are not an isolated incident; nor is Zwelithini solely responsible for fomenting it. Local elites – particularly those linked to the ruling party – also encourage anti-immigrant attitudes and actions. This article, based on discussions with Abahlali baseFreedom Park activists, looks at how local elites stimulate ‘xenophobia’ to protect their class interests, as well as how progressive working class activists have responded.
Rising inflation means increases in food and petrol prices. Inflation is a global problem, driven partly by conglomerates maximising their profits at the expense of ordinary people. The state plays its role, continually raising prices for services.

Residents in Khutsong location were neglected by the police many times, and that is why they ended up taking the law into their own hands in late 2013. more >>
