Youth Day 2018 marks 42 years after the Soweto Uprisings took place.

As the 16th of June draws near, South Africans remember the Soweto Uprisings of 1976. That day marked an important moment where learners stood up against the apartheid regime.

More than forty years after the uprisings, we look to some of the schools that started that movement…and ask the question: Has Youth Day and its impact lost significance on youth of today?
