This Freedom Day, we mark the extraordinary turnabout in South Africa's history with reflections from a few UCT staff and former students on how the struggle against apartheid took shape on campus – their memories of student sit-ins, government spies, and the everyday indignities of apartheid.
Are you a former student or staff member at UCT with a story to tell, a memory of a moment in time that shaped the world – yours, the campus community's or nation's? Whether it's an account of how students stood in solidarity, or the memory of a kiss that changed your life, we'd like to hear. Mail us newsdesk@uct.ac.za.
