The #blacklivesmatter  campaign started in the United States of America after a man named George Zimmerman killed an innocent young boy, And later on two more murders were also committed and all of these murders have one thing in common, which is that all these people whose lives were taken away African Americans. Later on the campaign started off as a way to commemorate all the innocent lives that were taken as a result of unnecessary violence (For more info about the Zimmerman case, please click on this linkGeorge zimmerman trial)

The #blacklivesmatter Organization is very involved in a sense of, the way they engage in conversations on social media and they are very much unapologetic about what they think. The Organization is getting the spirit back by not apologising for being black, I mean who isn't proud though? They are also going all in by posting all pictures or videos of anyone trying to assault or oppress black people. Messages of comfort and the sense of belonging has also managed to get people part of this campaign, and instead of being ashamed to be a black person we should all embrace every aspect of our lives, black lives matter article.

what is the way forward?

 

The only way forward is for people to understand that we are human and yes we all are different in our own ways but that shouldn't mean I should be defined and judged just by the colour of my skin

As a black person it is exasperating to read about all these people that still throw racism attacks or people who think it is normal to threaten the lives of others. We as black people must stand our ground and we must appreciate what we have because our forefathers have fought for us way too hard for us to throw the towel like that... black is beautiful.

#zumamustfall

zumamustfal l#ZumaMustFall campaign

The #zumamustfall campaign has been at the tip of everyone's tongue, if its not about him being a rapist, then its him hiring and firing ministers because he wants to. He is known to be very controversial on both his personal and professional life, I am referring to Nkandla and him "spending" tax payers money on his Nkandla empire. I am all for ANC(African National Congress) but I am tired of always reading frivolous scandals about him, As a country we are all scared of what is going on in the country and now we must deal with a president that doesn't want to step down and let others do damage control. 

Twitter mocking the presidential cabinet.

The purpose and background of this specific topic is to raise what most people are afraid to talk about, Yes he is the president but we shouldn't forget that he made a promise to change this economy and make it a better place, We can all agree that he is not fulfilling any promises.
 

How did society react on social media?

#zumamustfall trending on twitter.

 

Just by using the #zumamustfall, people on social media placed Jacob Zuma on a blast, enraged with anger and disappointment some of them went as far as buying a billboard worth R500000 written, #zumamustfall which of course trended on social media and created a bit of commotion between the ANC members and the billboard. Twitter took out all the dirty laundry and had nothing to omit, not even caring about whether they might get sued for slander or tarnishing his name. For more information about this billboard, please open this link Timeslive article.

 

What is the way forward?

 

 

A way forward would be having the president impeached(impeachment ) as suggested by the EFF, Because if we as a country wait on him to step down then it will not happen because he will just laugh it off just as he has before. It is a sad reality that the people who vote for Jacob Zuma are in the poorest of communities in South Africa, They actually think that he will bring about change. While he is still sleeping in his comfortable bed, not only are people getting poorer, but the economy is collapsing.
