Fact sheet

SASSFE (South Africa 足球竞彩app排名 Solidarity Foundation for Education) is a Fund started by a group of concerned former student leaders in South Africa, spanning many generations.

SASSFE

During the 1970’s and 1980’s black students studying at historically white universities in South Africa established Black 足球竞彩app排名 Societies (BSS), which were elected bodies aimed at representing the specific interests of black students who at the time, due to apartheid policies, constituted an artificial minority on so-called white campuses.

Typically the BSS and SRC structures worked closely together in uniting black and white students in anti-apartheid campaigns guided by the overall vision of a non-racial, non-sexist and democratic South Africa.

The roots of this approach lay in Steve Biko and Barney Pityana’s decision in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s to lead black students out of the National Union of South African 足球竞彩app排名s (Nusas) to establish the South African 足球竞彩app排名s Organisation (SASO).

In 1991, the BSS and SRC’s decided to form united representative structures on the historically white campuses.

At the same time, Nusas and Sansco (Saso’s successor organization) merged to form the South African 足球竞彩app排名s Congress (Sasco).
