It's not just your loo access they want, it's your entire house
[City Press] A radical housing plan which would see vacant rooms in Sandton homes sub-divided for the homeless of Alexandra is one of the proposals of the Black First Land First (BLF) movement.
"White people are always saying they are happy to live with us, this is the perfect opportunity to prove that," national convenor of BLF and former EFF MP Andile Mngxitama told delegates at the movement’s launch conference yesterday.
It has been nine months since Mngxitama first announced the pro-black movement following his expulsion from the EFF. At the time it was unclear whether or not BLF would contest political power.
Speaking to City Press on Friday, Mngxitama said that the national leadership would put forward a proposal to delegates that they should in fact enter the political arena.
"We will use politics to end politics. The purpose of the movement is to overthrow white supremacy and to win back the land. We want to occupy the land, there is no solution outside of that."
