Whitewashing history: Flawed exhibition on forced removals

Moegammad Tahier Kara Opinion 2024-10-03

"The map of Die Vlakte, another critical component of the exhibition, fails to represent the entire area accurately. Instead of depicting the full extent of Die Vlakte, the map includes only a few streets, while prominently featuring the predominantly white areas of the town."

Memories and reflections of Egypt

Moegammad Tahier Kara Reis 2023-03-09

"Before I left, I read a bit about Egypt, but not very intensely. Maybe, I think, that is the better way to do the tourist thing. Observe what there is to offer, and come back and symbolically make sense of it or offer real meaning to it. Egypt offers a one-of-a-kind experience. I think it is better to have a holiday when there are fewer expectations about what will play out and about the places you will visit."

The ambiguity of the name Luckhoff: my thoughts at the Race and Transformation in Higher Education Conference at Stellenbosch University

Moegammad Tahier Kara Universiteitseminaar | University Seminar 2022-11-25

"While I was sitting in one of the conference sessions, I recalled a discussion we’d had in school 35 years before. It was about the name of the school which I matriculated from. The issue was, who is this person whom Luckhoff, our school, was named after?"
