Defend Public Spaces
Consultation Meeting
Khanya College and the Defend Public Spaces Campaign hosted a consultation meeting with organisations and activists on 7 February 2026 at Workers Museum Cottages. The meeting, attended by 30 activists from six organisations, provided an update on the campaign and discussed strategies on how to move forward to defend and protect public spaces.
Khanya Study Group on
Imperialism and War
On 21 February 2026, Khanya College hosted a vibrant Study Group attended by 73 participants, including school youth, post-school youth, and representatives from various organisations.
The session focused on Imperialism. It began with a practical simulation that helped participants understand how imperialism operates in the real world, using the invasion and destabilisation of Venezuela as a case study. This interactive approach made the political concepts more accessible and understandable.
The Study Group then screened the documentary The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, which examines events surrounding the attempted coup in Venezuela.
Khanya’s Study Groups are open to reading cycles and individuals who would like to join.
