On this year’s Human Rights Day we are marking 62 years since the brutal Sharpeville massacre where the still-alive apartheid regime murdered almost 70 Black African working class people for defying the unjust pass law system. Have we seen significant changes since the democratic dispensation? Are we seeing the much needed  socio-economic gains for the working class majority?. Despite being the bodies who put their lives on the line for a democratic society and who generate all the wealth in our society through ceaseless, low-wage, often unprotected/precarious labour, is the working class in South Africa getting the dignity that it deserves?
