BLACK & WHITE NEUROSES : SOUTH AFRICA TODAY
Public Dialogue - 25th August 2012 at the Apartheid Museum
The public dialogue includes a brief introduction to Frantz Fanon and Steve Biko, as well as relating their ideas to South Africa today.
It further relates South African aspirations to the key Fanonian concept of 'Black neurosis' and Biko's proudly Black concept.
The talk references how this impacts our daily decisions regarding fashion, hair, cars etc and how it links to our racial, gender and class stereotypes. It extends to 'white neurosis'.

What' with the accent? Why do we prefer certain accents and why do we choose to speak the queens English/Afrikaans instead of our mother tongue?
