Anne Heffernan, "Limpopo's Legacy, Student Politics and Democracy in South Africa" (James Currey, 2019)

New Books in African American Studies

Anne Heffernan's new book Limpopo's Legacy, Student Politics and Democracy in South Africa (James Currey, 2019) is a thoroughly researched account of the Black Consciousness Movement, student activism, and politics in South Africa from the 1960s to the present. Heffernan focuses specifically on black student activism at the University of the North at Turfloop, a rural university in the Northern Transvaal, the modern-day Limpopo province. She compellingly argues that rural uprisings shaped politics nationally as contestations between university students, administrators, and apartheid officials escalated. Heffernan importantly demonstrates that these confrontations and the bureaucratic responses to them assisted the diffusion of radical politics nation-wide, especially in the years leading up to the Soweto Uprisings of 1976. Heffernan's biographical sketches of William Kgware, Abram Tiro, Julius Malema, Peter Mokaba, and others outline the political legacies and imprints that residents, students, and activists from Limpopo had and continue to have on post-apartheid politics. In extending her investigation to include student and youth politics after Soweto, Heffernan explores how politics in the Northern Transvaal remained central to national contestations between Black Consciousness and ANC-aligned youth groups throughout the 1980s. Heffernan's unwavering focus on Limpopo reframes our understanding of national politics and student activists' central role in shaping them. Limpopo's Legacy is a foundational text that provides the historical context for understanding contemporary student movements and electoral politics in South Africa today. Amanda Joyce Hall is a Ph.D. Candidate in History and African American Studies at Yale University. She is writing an international history on the global movement against South African apartheid during the 1970s and 1980s. She tweets from @amandajoycehall Learn more about your ad choices.

We also get into a student organization harassment issue at Texas State, Disney's new streaming service Disney+, Uber's surprising IPO warning about its profitability, and Walmart's new robotic workforce. We end show talking about life lessons we have learned about humility. We also discuss the concept of groupthink and how it is killing creativity in today's meeting setting, as well as the concept of practicing humility and sharing your ideas and accomplishments from your heart. Show Highlights: 4:30-9:45: Imagine living 99 years with your organs on the wrong side of your body. We explain how Rose Marie Bentley from Oregon accomplished this feat. 9:45-18:30: We talk about Turning Point USA, a political organization at Texas State, which was caught in the middle of harassment from the student body, and it turned into an eventual power struggle between the student government association and the university. 18:30-26:45: Add Disney to another company getting into the streaming service game. We discuss how Disney+ plans to separate itself from its competition in Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. 26:45-31:30: We discuss briefly Uber's less than stellar profitability results and whether we are on the brink of another dot com crash. 31:30-37:15: Walmart is adding thousands of robots to its stores. We explain why, and weigh the effects on the financials of the company and its workforce. 37:15-40:30: Slager learned an important lesson about self-awareness from his tax guy. 40:30-49:00: Drawing from readings in the book Originals by Adam Grant, we get into the topic of group think, and how creativity is being compromised in the standard company meeting setting today. We get into examples of creative culture like Bridgewater Associates and the jury room in the movie 12 Angry Men. 49:00-57:00: We end the show discussing what it means to practice humility and share from the heart, not your ego.

In the conventional narratives of Communist Poland, and Eastern Europe more generally, student activism tends to get short shrift. While the role of students in 1956 is unavoidable and widely acknowledged, after that their role and their relationship to the society at large has been minimized. The famous Kuron-Modzielewski letter of 1964 is treated first and foremost as an intra-elite affair, while the failure of the student protests in 1968 to provoke a broader movement as well as students' subsequent lack of involvement in the protests of December 1970 have been taken as evidence of students' lack of connection to broader society. Only in the late 1970s did was that gap bridged, first with founding of KOR after the strikes of 1976 and then during the Solidarity era. This account has been pervasive since the 1970s, and even people with only passing knowledge of Polish history have been exposed to it through Andrzej Wajda's 1981 film “Man of Iron.” There the student turned factory worker Maciej Birkut recounts first being told by his father the former Stakhanovite turned worker activist that 1968 is not the right time to challenge the governments and then stands by in spite during the strikes of 1970 only to learn of his father's death. Yet as so often happens when a historian take up a topic that has become so engrained that most people do not even stop to question it. In his new book Student Politics in Communist Poland: Generations of Consent and Dissent (Lexington Books, 2015), Tom Junes reveals that received narrative to be a myth that bears only partial connection to the truth. Covering the development of student politics in Poland from 1946 until the end of Communism, Junes argues that there were 8 distinct generations of students during that period, beginning with the students of the immediate postwar period whose worldview was shaped by their pre-War and War experiences to the students of the 1980s who embraced Solidarity, but felt betrayed by the roundtable negotiations that brought an end to Communist rule in 1989. It is a scrupulously researched book drawing on oral history as well as conventional primary source documents, and it was a pleasure to speak with Junes recently about his research.
