    Description: DM2001082811:SAED:SOCIAL:EDUCATION:JUN1955 - The Shut-down On African Education - A black clowd is sweeping over African education today. There is a pincer movement closing in centers of learning. In primary schools that unfortunate Bantu Education Act Arrived! Masses of parents, under the banner of the African National Congress, particularly on the Reef, went on boycott from the fatal day of April 1 by withdrawing their children from schools. And the Government's reply? Numbers of children who did not turn up for school by and on 25 April have been banned from schooling anywhere in the Union. As a result, of a total number of 6,948 pupils coming under this ban, 116 teachers in all have been served with a month's notice to leave school. The school, going population outside school has thus increased immensely. Banned pupils, sacked teachers, half-empty schools. (Photograph by Peter Magubane BAHA) Josias Madzunya

    Description: DM2001082812:SAED:SOCIAL:EDUCATION:NOV1955 - Its A Matter Of Sip And Fly At The 'Education Shebeens' - These girls and their leader, Beauty Moroane, were arrested in Benoni police raids. Education shebeens! Yes, that's what they are calling the Cultural Clubs set up by the A.N.C. to train the 8,000 African children who cannot or will not attend Bantu Education Schools. Education shebeens , where the children can furtively get some of the strong drink of knowledge. Playing Sip and Fly with knowlege! Because the law says no private schools may be conducted without registration by the Native affairs Department. Because if the private clubs could be proved to be private schools they would be forcibly stopped, for selling ellicit education. In Brakpan, Benoni, Germiston, NatalSpruit, Alexandra Township and Moroka the children are crowded into shacks, leaking halls, dilapidated cinemas and even open veld.

In the gala opening of the anniversary celebrations the Brothers crashed through a paper screen into their current hit-parade song...'The `Urge'. In the words of the song, they told of their love and devotion to the stage...A year ago the Manhattan Brothers discovered a great voice in Miriam Makeba. She was just a small-town girl with a voice, which was about all she had. They saw possibilities in her and signed her for a year. The backing group was: Norman Martins (drums) Jacob 'Mzala' Lepere (bass) Fix Qinta (piano) Randolph Chose (trumpet) Kippie Moeketsi (clarinet) MacKay Davashe (te

    Description: DM2006120608:POLITICS:WOMEN:1956 - Helen Joseph, Brave fighter of Racism - Helen was born in 1905, in Britain. She became politically active when she emigrated to South Africa. She soon became a member of the South African Federation of South African Women. In 1955 she was one of the 20 000 women who marched to the Union Building in Pretoria, to protest against the extension of the pass system to black women. Helen was the first person to be placed under house arrest in South Africa and one of one hundred and fifty six people arrested in 1956, who were charged with high treason. The treason Trial ended after four years, in March 196, when Helen Joseph and all the accused were acquitted of all charges. From then on, Helen was banned repeatedly and placed under house arrest.

    Description: DM2000012801:SAED:POLITICS:EDUCATION:JUN1955 - The shut-down on African education - A Black cloud is sweeping over African education today. There is a pincer movement closing in on centers of learning. In primary schools that unfortunate Bantu Education Act has arrived! Masses of parents, under the banner of the African National Congress, particularly on the Reef, went on boycott from the fatal day of April 1 by withdrawing their children from schools. And the Goverments reply? numbers of children who did not turn up for school by and on April 25 have been banned from schooling anywhere in the Union. As a result, of a total number of 6,948 pupils coming under this ban, 116 teachers in all have been served with a month's notice to leave school. The school - going population outside school has thus been increased immensely. Banned pupils, sacked teachers, half-empty classes.
