Podcast appearances and mentions of gwen ngwenya

Izak praat met Jan Bosman, hoofsekretaris van die Afrikanerbond oor die stuk wat Gwen Ngwenya geskryf het oor die Broederbond wat na bewering ook maar kaders was.

Automating technologies threaten to usher in a workless future. To many, this is a depressing prognosis, an image of civilization replaced by its machines. But what if an automated future is something to be welcomed rather than feared? Work is a source of misery and oppression for most people, so shouldn't we do what we can to hasten its demise? In this episode of CwG, Gwen is joined by the philosopher John Danaher to talk about his book “Automation and Utopia.” John makes the case that the rise of automating technologies presents a utopian moment for humankind, providing both the motive and the means to build a better future.

Conversations with Gwen explores big ideas which are changing, or have the potential to change, public policy and how we live. While ideas are valuable for their own sake, these conversations explore ideas not only as abstract fascination but for their ability to help us live better. --- What if free will is an illusion? What would that mean for society, morality, meaning, and the law? In our first episode, Gwen tackles these topics with American philosopher Gregg Caruso, whose recent book "Just Deserts" — which he co-authored with the philosopher Daniel Dennett — introduces the concepts central to the debate about free will and moral responsibility. --- Gwen Ngwenya is a South African politician, Head of Policy of the Democratic Alliance, and host of the podcast Conversations with Gwen.

Business Day TV — The DA’s Economic Justice Policy offers South Africans an alternative route to redress at a time when all South Africans are desperately looking for a way out of the destructive race-based politics of our time and as the battle for ideas heats up around how we grow the economy in the wake of the Covid-lockdown-induced economic depression, the worst since WWII.

If you have been following South African politics for the past few years, especially on Twitter, you would probably have come across the name Gwen Ngwenya. She is a former Member of Parliament representing the Democratic Alliance (DA), the official opposition in South Africa. More interesting, is how, despite the insults that have been hurled at her on social media and some times in Main Stream Media (MSM), Gwen has kept her cool and argued her points with little emotion. As such, I thought since she has now declined to be an MP, it would be great to discuss a few things with her around South African politics and some issues such as affirmative action. Gwen now runs her technology advisory and policy firm in South Africa called TechPol. In this podcast we also talk about some of the emerging technology trends such as the on-demand (gig) economy and how governments should approach them from a policy point of view.

The Democratic Alliance head of policy Gwen Ngwenya has resigned from her position. Ngwenya has cited unhappiness over unfulfilled promises by the party leadership as one of her many reasons for resigning. In her resignation letter addressed to leader Mmusi Maimane‚ she has accused the leadership of failing to support her unit, saying sufficient resources were not allocated.

This episode of The Renegade Report takes on racism and group identity in South Africa with guest Gwen Ngwenya.

It is a great antidote to the proposed "Anti-Racism Week".
