WELCOME to JOZi BOOK FAIR!!Welcome to the 8th Jozi Book Fair, held at the Science Stadium, Wits University. The co-hosts of the Fair are Khanya College and Wits University. The JBF educational and cultural festival, is here at last! With the participation of people from all walks of life we engage the theme, YOUTH RISING, and we commemorate the 40th anniversary of Soweto 1976. This is a fair by youth, for youth. This year we have more than 150 events, with two-thirds (101) being hosted by the public and exhibitors at the Fair (NGOs, individuals, publishers and self-publishers). The programmes over the next two days include: the Spelling Bee, Children, Roundtable discussions, book launches, seminars, poetry, Jazz, Film and Theatre.

Guests of FairThis year JBF’s award-winning Guests of the Fair, Carol (Mohale) Mashigo and Kemang Wa Lehulere will participate in a number of activities, conversing individually about their work, and in Roundtable discussions on Conditions of Youth in South Africa (with Statistician-General, Phali Lehohla), and Decolonisation, art and artists (with Zakes Mda).

A Fair by youth for youthGiven the theme, the Fair showcases the exceptional talent of South Africa’s youth in all art forms. There is a festival of Poetry (more than 20 activities and open mic), performances; theatre, live music, seminars, conversations and roundtable discussions and more than twenty (20) workshops. Skills empowerment workshops for youth: on social media, poetry, how to blog, how to publish your e-book, photograpy using cellphones, philosophy for youth and meditation for youth. There are 15 book launches of emerging writers and self-publishers

and the JBF’s school youth. The Fair also promotes intergenerational debate about Soweto 1976 to more current issues.

The 40th Anniversary of Soweto will be commemorated in a Conversation on The Influence of Soweto 1976 on literature, art and liberation with Mongane Wally Serote, James Matthews, Keorapetse Kgositsile and Hein Willemse; and a photographic exhibition on the Politics of Photography. The New JBF series #Pass on the Word, by our legendary activist artists, responds to the dearth of publications on Soweto 1976 and will be launched on Saturday.

Theatre productions by youth: Creature, (directed by Feeya Asmal), Shiwelele (directed by Naledi Chirwa) about #Feesmustfall, Clutter (directed by Searatoa van Driel) & a stage reading of Botoo by Ronnie Govender. The live performances of poets, Diana Ferrus and the dissident poet, James Matthews are not to be missed on Saturday and Sunday.

Current DebatesRoundtable discussions on current issues will interest youth and the public: Where is the ANC Going? (with Justice Malala, Ranjeni Munusamy & Dale McKinley); Local Government elections: a new political landscape? (With Steven Friedman & Oupa Lehulere); &

What is the future of Labour in SA? (Suraya Jawoodien and Ighsaan Schroeder).

Of particular interest to the JBF and the movement of readers and writers is the discussion on Building an inclusive African Literature in South Africa, with Hein Willemse, Zakes Mda, Sylvia Vollenhoven and Mongane Wally Serote.

Conversations with authors:

Yolisa Qunta and Writing what we like; Charles Cilliers on Degas Dust; Superpower or Neocolonialist with Liesl Louw-Vaudran, Sylvia Vollenhoven on Keeper of the Kumm, Rami Chuene discusses We kissed the sun and embraced the moon; & Adekeye Adebajo and Chris

JBF on Thursday & FridayThe JBF kicked off to a great start on Thursday and Friday with a number of activities: the JBF Schools Programme, the Screening of the Film Action Kommandant by Nadine Cloete on Thursday evening, Sewing Wonderbags Project with the Children’s Resource Centre from Cape Town and the Writing Workshop with the Society for Chidren’s Book Writers and Illustrators, run by British author, Alan Durant.Successful Schools Programme The Fair kicked off to a great start on Thursday and Friday with the successful Schools Programme. More than 600 school youth participated over the two days from more than 30 schools. The JBF works with schools, teachers and book clubs throughout the year. The school programme was intense, starting with participation in a choice of fifteen (15) workshops on photography, writing stories, poetry and music. Then students discussed with the authors whose books they had read – Zakes Mda, Ronnie Govender, James Matthews, Keorapetse Kgositsile and Mohale Mashigo, the Guest of the Fair. This was followed by an interesting discussion hosted by Mashigo on the Meaning of Soweto before watching the lively play, the Orphans of Qumbu with JBF inner city youth. The play is accompanied by music performed by the Moses Taiwa Molelekwa Band.

Don’t miss Action KommandantThe joint film JBF-Wits SRC screening of Action Kommandant (director, Nadine Cloete) about the killing of MK fighter, Ashley Kriel, was very well attended and well received on Thursday, 1st Sept. Together with the book launch, Wankie 67 by Nicky van Driel, the discussion was interesting and moving. Leon Scott, a fellow MK fighter in the same cell as Ashley Kriel, who is also featured in the documentary was visibly moved. He expressed his gratitude to Cloete for the engaging and consultative approach in the making of the film. However, Scott noted that for many people in South Africa, including Bonteheuwel where he and Kriel were both born, nothing has changed and many people still go to bed hungry. Action Kommandant will be screened again on Saturday and Sunday at 2.00pm.
