Bazibona bengamanxusa engu-quko eyisisekelo.Emlandweni abantu abasha bebelokhu behola ukuletha uguquko. Emashumini emi-nyaka embalwa edlulile, abantu abasha sebelwe izimpi eziningi zomzabalazo belwela ukungabikho kobulungiswa, kusuka ngowe-1968 kumbhiki-sho wabafundi e-Paris, kuya kumkhankaso ophikisana nempi eMelika ngowe-1960, kuya kumzabalazo ophikisana nobuqonela emazweni amani-ngi ase-Afrika nase-Asia, kuya ekulweni nobandlululo, kuya kumibhikisho yokulwela inkululeko yama-Arab i-Arab Spring.Kungekudala nje, abantu abasha bebephambili ku-mkhankaso we #BlackLivesMa-tter ozuze ukwesekwa umhlaba jikelele emva kokubulawa kuka-George Floyd eMelika. Emavikini ambalwa adlule, izishoshovu emhlabeni jikelele bezilokhu zifuna kususwe imifanekiso etusa ubulwane nodlame lokuhweba ngezigqila kanye nobuqonela.Embhikishweni waseNyuvesi yase-Oxford muva nje umbhi-kishi wayephethe uqwembe olunamagama athi 'Rhodes must Fall", ukukhala okuhla-ngene kwabafundi ezweni lethu eminyakeni emihlanu eyedlule.Abantu abasha emhlabeni jikelele bathole isisusa esiso-dwa. Babhidliza izithombe ezi-baziwe nemifanekiso ecwasa ngokobuhlanga, bafuna kukhu-lulwe ezemfundo, futhi bafuna zonke izikhungo zibhekane nokucwaswa ngokobuhlanga nangokwenhlalo.Manje, njengoba sihlonipha isizukulwane sangowe-1976 mhla ziyi-16 Nhlangulana 2020, sithulela isigqoko intsha yaseNingizimu Afrika yanga-semva kobandlululo, izindla-lifa ezifanelwe yileli lifa elihle kangaka. Umsebenzi wesizukulwane sangowe-1976 kwakunguku-shabalalisa imfundo yobandlu-lulo; okumele intsha yanamuhla iqhubele phambili umsebenzi wokubuyisana nokwenza izi-nguquko ezweni.Esikhathini esizayo ku-zothiwa lo nyaka, wezi-2020, kwakungukuqala kwesikhathi esisha emlandweni wabantu.Igciwane le-corona aligci-nanga nje ngokuthinta kanzima izimpilo zabantu kanye noku-phila, liphinde lanyakazisa ukuphila emhlabeni jikelele.Indlela ubhubhane olube yiyona lusikhumbuze uku-xhumana kwezinhlanga za-bantu kanye nokungalingani okujulile okukhona phakathi kwamazwe naphakathi ema-zweni.Lolu bhubhane lusinika ithuba 'lokulungisa kabusha' umhlaba esiwubona ngobu-lima bokuqhakambisa izinto ngokweqile, ubugovu kanye nokuzithiba hhayi nje kwicala lomuntu ngamunye kodwa emiphakathini yonke.Abantu abasha basitshela ukuthi amagugu abalulekile obuqotho, isihawu kanye nobumbano kumele kube izimpawu zomphumela wo-mphakathi omusha, nokuthi bazimisele ukuba ngamaqhawe alo mhlaba omusha, ongcono.Ezingxoxweni engibe  nazo nabantu abasha ngithe akumele sibukele phansi ama-ndla ombono, ngoba imibono ingashintsha futhi isishintshe umhlaba. Imibono isikhuthaze inqubekelaphambili yabantu futhi iyona ezokwenza sikwazi ukuphendla indlela entsha esikhathini sangemva kwegci-wane le-corona.  Laba bantu abasha baguqule imibono yabo yaba izenzo. Abavumelanga ukuntuleka kwezinsiza kubaphazamise. Bazitholele intuba emikhakheni eminingi kusuka ebuchwe-phesheni obuphezulu kuya ekugcinweni kwemvelo.Manje ukudlula ekuqaleni sizobheka umfutho wentshayakithi wokusungula noku-qamba izinto ukuza neziso-mbululo zosizi lokuswelakala kwemisebenzi ezizosiza bona, nemiphakathi yabo. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ngiphosela inselele intsha yezwe lakithi ukusungula nokuqamba izinhlelo ezizo-sisiza ukufezekisa amaphupho ethu okuthuthuka.Ngowe-1961, i-Cuba eguquki-leyo yathumela ibutho la-bafundi abangamavolontiya abasebasha ezintabeni nasezi-godini ukuyokwakha izikole, bafundise ukufunda nokubhala nokuqeqesha othisha abasha. Namanje usathathwa njengo-mkhankaso oyimpumelelo kakhulu kunayo yonke emla-ndweni wesimanje.Abantu bakithi abasha kumele basungule imizamo yo-kuthuthukiswa komphakathi futhi kumele kube yibona abayiholayo.Njengoba benza emzabala-zweni wokulwela ukulinga-na emfundweni ephakeme, umfutho omkhulu wentsha yakithi kumele usetshenziswe ukulwela ukufinyelela oku-linganayo ekunakekelweni ngokwezempilo, ekuguquleni nakubunikazi bomhlaba futhi, okubaluleke kakhulu, ubu-lungiswa ngokobulili.Njengabo bonke abantu baseNingizimu Afrika, ngi-phazamiseke kakhulu ukwe-nyuka kwezinga lokubulawa kwabesifazane abasebancane bebulawa ngamadoda. Lezi izenzo ezithusayo zobulwane ezingenandawo emphakathini wakithi.Ubushoshovu obuholwa yi-ntsha, ukuqwashisa kanye no-kwelulekana kwentsha yizona zikhali zethu emizamweni yethu yokuqeda udlame olu-bhekiswe kubulili obuthile e-mphakathini. Ngaso lesi sikha-thi, kumele siqinise uhlelo lwethu lobulungiswa, siqinise-kise ukuthi izigilamkhuba zi-yajeziswa, kuqiniswe imithetho yebheyili noshwele nokuthi labo asebegwetshwe udilika-jele babhadla ejele impilo yabo yonke.Ngesikhathi lokhu kudingaumsebenzi womphakathi wo-nke, ngicela amadoda ikakhu-lukazi asemancane ukuqala umzabalazo wokulwa nodlame olubhekiswe kubulili obuthile. Uma singaqeda impi ebhekiswe kwabesifazane baseNingizimu Afrika, iphupho lomphakathi omusha lizolokhu liyize leze.Labo bethu ababeyingxe-nye yombhikisho wabafundi ngesikhathi sobandlululo sihle-zi sibuzwa ukuthi sicabangani ngentsha yanamuhla. Ku-nokulingeka okukhona koku-ﬁ  sa ukubuyela emuva 'ezinsu-kwini ezimnandi' zepolitiki yabafundi nomzabalazo we-ntsha, okungeke kuphinde kube khona.Kodwa ngendlela intsha ya-ngonyaka odlule echaze ngayo umsebenzi wayo, intsha yana-muhla iwuchazile owayo.Intsha yaseNingizimu  Afrika yangowezi-2020 iyaﬁ  ka ebangeni eliphezulu elabekwa abangaphambili. Banethemba, bayabekezela futhi banesibindi, ikakhulukazi uma bebhekene nesimo esinzima kakhulu.Bangumthombo wogqozi nethemba.
