I find it kinda sad
And I find it kinda funny
And I find it kinda funny
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... mad world
- Gary Jules
"It seems to me that this is the question the whole triptych asks—whether God, having made the world and having conferred on man both the blessing and the curse of free will, would destroy all of his creation in the face of human failing. This is the fundamental connection between these inner panels and the destructive flood depicted on the outer wings. Bosch’s lesson, if there is one, seems to be that we can choose good over evil or we can be swept away. Man proposes, God disposes. - Dr. Sally Hickson

Speaking out about #FeesMustFall on the iStart2 Show this week, is Attie van Nel, activist, entrepreneur and pastor from Kimberley in the Northern Cape. Attie van Nel is back on our show and asks some of the big questions every parent and South African citizen should be asking about the sustainability of our education system.
"This is not 1976. As adults we should give proper direction to this reservoir of unbridled passion. It goes to the broader issues of how we have failed this generation," says Attie. "The apathy of the last 22 years, the abdication of responsibility, the wholesale outsourcing of our future only to the political sphere, is a wake-up call. It sounds a wake-up call to society to take control of its own future."
Attie is passionate about building a future for all South Africans. Don't miss out on what he has to say:
