The Society, Work and Development Institute (SWOP) at Wits will host this breakfast seminar by Professor Karl von Holdt and and Dr Prishani Naidoo.

This semester SWOP returns to old themes with fresh eyes. Is there something new emerging in the field of movements and popular politics, or are we repeating old patterns? Whiteness is associated with domination – so what does it mean when poor whites struggle for survival in a black shack settlement?
