SA student protests: What is 'cultural capital'? | News24

26 Nov 2015

The Centre for Conflict Resolution (CCR), Cape Town, held a public dialogue on 'Transformation Struggles in South African Universities'. One of the guest speakers, Dr. Amanda Hlengwa - who is a lecturer for the Centre for Higher Education at Rhodes University - joined us in studio ahead of the dialogue.

2015 has seen an unprecedented number of student protests at tertiary institutions throughout South Africa, culminating in the #FeesMustFall protests and the march on the Union Buildings on 23 October.

In this third and final part of the interview, Amanda gives her opinion on where the #feesmustfall and splinter movements are currently sitting, as well as explains the meaning of 'cultural capital'.
