Creating new futures 6 OPINION AND ADVICE Grocott’s Mail 28 SEPTEMBER 2018 LETTERS to the Editor and COLUMNS

The source since 1870 It’s your heritage

The final judging in the WESSA #CelebrateNaturalHeritage photographic competition has taken place and the winners in the three categories – Schools, Amateur and Professional – will be announced at a special prizegiving ceremony on 10 October. Grocott’s Mail is one of the partners in the initiative and we were thrilled to see the amazing talent in the 70-odd entries received. You can see the top 10 in each category on display at NELM. That national institution – the National English Litera- ture Museum - is about to be renamed, in line with its new broader mission (see page 14) – and members of the public have a chance to make suggestions. Senior officials from the Department of Arts and Culture also recently visited Rhodes University as part of a strong drive for the transformation of cultural symbols. A far deeper kind of transformation was the topic of the Neil Aggett Memorial Lecture at Kingswood College yester- day, where Wits Vice Chancellor Adam Habib spoke about activism and change through the lens of the Fees Must Fall campaign. Habib spoke of the necessity for consistency between the means and the goals of a campaign for change: in simple terms, practice what you preach. As a month focused on heritage comes to a close, it is ap- palling that Minister of Mineral Resources Gwede Mantashe seems determined to ignore the Xolobeni community on the Wild Coast, who have strongly objected to the destruction of Hospice Grahamstown says thank you to FNB Grahamstown (Makhanda) who celebrated National Sunflower Day by dressing the pristine natural heritage of that area that would result from in their beautiful traditional wear, sporting their bright TOPEs (tube of hope), by purchasing toiletries for Grahamstown mining operations there, with short-term benefits for a few.
