Very soon after taking up the position, Mike realised that the vision of the founding organisation was becoming irrelevant as education and politics converged, reaching a crisis point in the second half of the 1980s. Mike found himself walking the tightrope between the expectations of the funders on the one hand and those of the students and community on the other. Matters reached a tipping point and Mike had to make a decision. As 'Comrade Mike' he elected that the interests of the students and the community take precedence. Mike chose education AND liberation."-- $c Back cover. 610 20 $a All Saints College (East London, South Africa) 650 0 $a Education $z Eastern Cape $z Eastern Cape $x History. 650 0 $a School principals $z Eastern Cape. $z Eastern Cape. 650 0 $a Segregation in education $z Eastern Cape. $z Eastern Cape. 650 0 $a Apartheid $z South Africa. 650 7 $a Apartheid. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00811112 650 7 $a Education. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00902499 650 7 $a School principals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01107681 650 7 $a Segregation in education. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01111221 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 651 7 $a South Africa $z Eastern Cape. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01272828 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117011502.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=454D599A4EAA11EDAB62559A42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
