The EFF's motion to change the name of Cape Town International Airport to Winnie Madikizela-Mandela is nothing more than political grandstanding. The proposal is not to honour mama Winnie as a struggle icon, but to misuse her name in order to play a racially divisive game and drive a racial wedge between black and coloured residents in the province. They also continue to drive cultural hegemony as if other people never existed or took part in the struggles for the freedom of this country.
