Show me one thing that we black people did good.

Mmmmmm

You don’t have to change the narrative. You just have to perform in a decent and professional way. Then the narratives will follow. It‘s sad how ignorant the majority (not only blacks) in SA is, otherwise one wouldn’t need to write stories about it.

OK so is NARITIVE the word of the season? Does the government send out a memo explaining the meaning of a word and then challenge everyone to use it in every single press conference or is it the journos?

Great narration, Mr mteton. Bought it last week and already on Chapter 6. Good read, inspirational and perfect flow. For some of us who want to transition from public service to corporate, the book provide a sound base to understand the rigors in that space. Diversity&Inclusion

Thank you mteton
