## Resource

Young people are fed up with broken promises as unemployment hits nearly half, leaving grads with top marks jobless and dreamers without capital. Parents sell livestock and skip meals just to see their kids return home with no future — a crisis that’s eroding dignity and relationships. Echoing 1976’s fight for freedom, today’s youth demand economic justice, calling for urgent government action. President Ramaphosa admitted education alone won’t fix it, urging businesses to hire and young voters to engage — progress demands everyone’s part.
