UCT shame, you will never get one like her ever! They couldn't stand a black assertive woman, intellectual, with credentials and discipline. Atleast they did not poison her. Fly high Prof... Fly high daughter of the soil... Thank you for all what you did at UCT. The hi-story will be told.
Watching this six years later. This woman is phenomenal! Those who pave the way for us, we look at her, find courage and we draw strength. History will be told. What a life lived! She a LIONESS, Roar on Queen!
Gems being dropped here and being relevant many years later. 1 gem that stands out for me is: "As a university probably one of our greatest weaknesses is that we look back with great enthusiasm instead of looking forward with great enthusiasm ".
I can't stop watching this clip... motivation, inspiration, confidence, profound, strategic and livelihoods national building...halala morwadia Mmutlana
Am watching this in 2022, not knowing what is going on my own life but it felt as if this is the presentation I needed in my life. This so magical. Thank you Pro.
The energy the confidebce and context of the knowledge displayed will remain unmatched not it even generation C's can outdo that. Prof Phakeng big ups to you, you really care about the betterment of academic institutions.
She is amazing! I am watching this in 2019 and wish her well in what she planned to do. Her vision can take us forward as a country. Her leadership style is very relevant to our times
She is powerful, brilliant, brave, unapologetic n very clear about transformation; she lived it n was a cheerleader for that Khayelitsha student she talks about. That's why they targeted her with smear campaigns.
