Kaiper, Anna – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Domestic workers have played an essential role in the history of South Africa; and yet, current research neither explores the educational experiences of these women nor examines the ways in which national discourses surrounding English language learning influence their educational motivations. This dissertation aims to ameliorate this dearth of…

"Doing Justice to History" challenges everyday racism in society and offers counter-stories to the singular narratives that still prevail among national historians and in school curricula.

Gordon, Steven Lawrence; Harvey, Jaqueline – Language and Education, 2019
A key factor in providing quality education is the main language of instruction (M-LoI). This creates a challenging situation for education policymakers in post-colonial multilingual countries such as South Africa. Language-in-education policies must valorise indigenous languages and redress their exclusion in past education systems while ensuring…

Bazana, Sandiso; Mogotsi, Opelo P. – Transformation in Higher Education, 2017
South African government has been promulgating pieces of legislation aimed at ensuring racial integration, especially in higher education, and indirectly enforcing acculturation in historically white universities. Studies have proven that institutional cultures in historically white universities alienate and exclude black students' identities.…

Booi, Masixole; Vincent, Louise; Liccardo, Sabrina – Higher Education Research and Development, 2017
The post-apartheid higher education transformation project is faced with the challenge of recruiting and retaining black academics and other senior staff.

Andrews, Kehinde – Journal of Negro Education, 2014
Black Radicalism believes in the centrality of racism to Western imperialism and a Diasporic commitment to the liberation of Africa; existing in distinction to Black Nationalism, Marxism and Critical Race Theory.

Epstein, Debbie – Globalisation, Societies and Education, 2014
This paper draws on fieldwork done in Greystone School in South Africa, a single sex girls' school.

Biraimah, Karen L. – International Review of Education, 2016
Namibia has one of the most dehumanising and destructive colonial pasts of any nation in Africa, or, for that matter, the world. Before colonisation, the area now known as Namibia was home to diverse cultural groups. The successive colonial regimes of Germany and South Africa inflicted genocide, brutality and apartheid on the region. Namibia…

le Roux, Adré – South African Journal of Education, 2014
Despite fundamental reforms to South African education, large performance gaps still prevail between former black schools and former white schools.
