  • “I think it’s under publicised as braai day, [and] doesn’t put emphasis on what it [Heritage Day] is about. There’s no emphasis on heritage.” Juan Le-Sueui, 3rd year Archaeology.

  • “I don’t know, is it a public holiday? I’m guessing it has something to do with your heritage as a South African.” Kyle September, 2nd year BMus.

  • “[It is a]Remembrance of different cultures, engagement of different culture and language… The essence of Heritage Day is lost when we call it braai day.”Mpho Letlhake, 2nd year Economical Science.

  • “Calling it braai day takes away from the real issue. A day isn’t enough. In order for it to mean something we need to do it for the whole year.” Namata Serumaga-Musisi, 3rd year Archaeology.

  • “It means braaing, wearing traditional clothes and not wearing my All Stars.” Puffy Sellesse, 2nd year Psychology.
