“South Africa does not have a poverty problem. Poverty is a result of denialism of the way corruption taxes poor people, the inefficiencies that undermine poor people’s opportunities and our refusal to admit that we are part of the problem.“
Mamphela Aletta Ramphele, (born December 28, 1947, Uitkyk, South Africa), a South African activist, physician, academic, businesswoman, and political leader known for her activism efforts for the rights of black South Africans.
