The term ‘born-frees’ has
been loosely thrown around for the past two years, in the national political
party campaigns_ pointing out the post-apartheid generation that represent a
neo-political viewpoint of young adults who are new voters, that could bring
about change, or not - leading up to the 2014 elections, on the 7th
of May.
A hullabaloo about the
term its self surfaced a couple of months ago regarding the use of the term ‘born-free’.
In debates that occur within the media, some folks termed it an insult to the intelligentsia
of the young people that will be casting as neo-voters.
The ‘born-frees’ are
free of all the brutal burdens, and political oppression that seized 20 years
ago in South Africa. Their political perspective
is solely formed on what has been preached
to them about the past, Apartheid and human suffering that was encountered_
dimensionally weighted against the social, economic, boundless eclectic freedom,
that they were born into.
An ideological foundation
to the ‘born-frees’ would be: ‘THE FUTURE SEPARATORS/ DECIDERS’ to a
neo-political change and freedom, in our country. Their suffrage stands as a
scale to the magnitude of policies that will be implemented by our future
leaders. Their suffrage stands on how the state will face the fierce debates on
Nationalisation of natural assets of our country, Expropriation of Land_
citizen custodian of shares and profits of land production. Their suffrage
stands on how strategic economic sectors of our country will be managed by the
elect.
As deciders to our
newly acquired democratic state, the ‘born-frees’ are a systematic weapon to
those that need real change and progress in our country.
The ‘Born-frees’ are a new
voice that needs to be nurtured, educated and given a hand, and liberty to make
that mark*
A neo-vote is
important to a neo-political view point,
ultimately to a socioeconomic and social change to the people of South Africa.
People died in and around
South Africa to gain and defend our Democracy*
WORD TO A NEW
BORN-FREE VOTER REVOLUTION
