Salute to Temba Bavuma, people's champion
Proteas captain Temba Bavuma holds the ICC World Test Championship Mace as he celebrates with teammates after victory on day four of the ICC World Test Championship cricket final match between Australia and South Africa. Image: GLYN KIRK / AFP IN A POST match interview after the test match triumph, national cricket captain Temba Bavuma remarked that he is more than a black cricketer. To be recognized more than a black cricketer is special. Temba Bavuma you are enough. Temba Bavuma you are beyond people's imaginations and inferiority complexes. Temba Bavuma you are a special human being. The national youth commission act of 1996 defines young people in South Africa between the ages of 14 and 35. The youth of 1976 had to struggle and sacrifice for their rights and privileges. We honour their legacy, tenacity and vision. The right and dignity to learn in any language should forever be a platform for destiny and not a platform of destruction. History portrays the 1976 youth protesting for equality and freedom. As a young person Temba Bavuma had to similarly protest through his cricket ability for the God given right to shine. Despite the trappings and limitations bestowed upon him directly and indirectly by society and the racial legacy of apartheid, Bavuma stood tall with hope arising evermore. The truth however is that there are many Temba Bavumas still fighting, protesting quietly waiting, working, dreaming for their moment. Let us not be the barriers that limit the potential of young people who are more than ready to shine under the African sun. History cannot repeat itself. The youth of 1976 fought for better. The youth of 1976 died so that freedom can not only be imagined but lived. Video Player is loading.

Tottenham Hotspur's Welsh striker #22 Brennan Johnson celebrates after scoring their second goal during the English Premier League football match between Tottenham Hotspur and Brentford at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, on September 21, 2024. More GLYN KIRK/AFP via Getty Images How to Watch Tottenham Hotspur vs Bodo/Glimt: Date: Thursday, May 1, 2025 Time: 3:00 PM ET Channel: CBSSN Stream: FuboTV (TRY FOR FREE) Tottenham Hotspur and Bodo/Glimt will take the pitch on Thursday, May 1st, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in this UEFA Europa League clash. This is the first leg of the semifinals, as both clubs look to inch closer to the championship match. Tottenham will have the home advantage as they look to win their first Europa League title since 1984. They have had a rough go during Premier League play this season, with an 11-4-16 record. They are sixteenth in the standings, despite having a positive goal differential, so they should demonstrate that they are better than their record indicates in this one. Bodo/Glimt enters as the underdog in this first leg, but if they can at least hold it to a draw on the road, they will be in a decent position to pull off the upset at home. Kasper Waarst Hogh will have to come up big in this one, and he is on fire right now, having scored two goals in his last match. This is a great UEFA Europa League match.
