[LISTEN] Yolisa Qunta on the book “Writing What We Like”.

The recent Fees Must Fall movement is just one example of how many young South Africans feel the Rainbow Nation has failed them.

A new book called, Writing What We Like: A New Generation Speaks, gives expression to some of the frustrations and joys of being a young, black South African. Various well-known figures, like Shaka Sisulu, Simphiwe Dana, David Kau, Loyisa Gola and Sivuyile Ngesi, contribute essays on diverse topics like black tax, mother-tongue education, and dating.

The book is edited by Yolisa Qunta, who is also a contributor.
