OPINION: A smiling Hendrik Verwoerd is not the answer to the education crisis

So said Hendrik Verwoerd, the Architect of Apartheid, in support of the 1953 introduction of the Bantu Education Act, a system designed to separate education institutions along racial lines.

The insensitive petition calls for the government to provide all schools with proper resources to teach basic, quality skills in reading and mathematics and to replace every school pit latrine with safe, clean toilets by 1 January 2021.Their website displays a banner depicting a smiling Verwoerd, and the caption: “If we don't get behind education, we are fulfilling his legacy.”

“Together,” their website states, “we can tell our government to avoid fulfilling Verwoerd’s toxic legacy and instead give all children in South Africa a future to smile about.”The human rights group plans to put images of a smiling Verwoerd up all over Johannesburg this week and call on the public to “sign the smile off” his face.
