BLF HOSTS PROF. CHRIS MALIKANE

Radical economic transformation, in terms of changing the structure and ownership patterns of the land and economy, is the only solution to the question of vast inequality in the country, Professor Chris Malikane told a packed room at the Black First Land First (BLF) movement’s monthly Blacks In Dialogue (BID) event which took place yesterday.Malikane, who is the advisor to the Minister of Finance, Malusi Gigaba, was unpacking a paper he wrote, titled Concerning The Current Situation, wherein he charts minimum demands to the African National Congress (ANC) and what he terms, “progressive forces”, to fight the scourge of white monopoly capital, which he deems the primary enemy to black liberation. Malikane has recently come under heavy fire for his proposals for radical economic policy shift in the country. We now hear from Zenele Lwana to find some of the details proposed by Malikane and why Black Land First supports him.
