You can’t leave the youth out (for Nokonwaba)
(sent to me on 10/12/08)
You can’t leave the youth out
of our South African life
whatever it is you do
You can’t leave the youth out
whether you are electioneering
every 4 or 5 years
(to prove we are a democracy)
You can’t leave the youth out
of the popular education process
you are reflecting on
(whether it is history or herstory)
You can’t leave the youth out
neither can you do that
to our young women
(before or after 16 days)
You can’t leave the youth out
lest you want to be left behind
Inspired to put pen to paper while imagining a collective future, Monday-Tuesday November 24-25 2008, with young Nokonwaba reminding us that we can’t leave the youth out.
