Youth of today should know how significant the struggles of politics that shined SA under the colonial powers are. How the Human Rights Day; the Freedom Day; Labour Day; June 16, Youth Day; Women’s Day; Heritage Day and the Day of Reconciliation came about. Today SA commemorates and celebrates the hard earned victory of Africanism. People who pioneered and led the multi-campaigns, movements and others even exiled to free SA from the “shackles of Versailles”, some died while others are still living and sharing experiences they had gone through with the struggle.
I should have thought it was very relevant! Young people enjoy a public holiday even well before they ever work. They should know the story behind it being a special day. The Americans and the Canadians do good jobs at highlighting the "why?" of their quite different special days. The British are quite useless at it! Parents might help explain, but schools can do it quite easily.

I should also mention the important role charities and social organizations can play in the education process.

Relative to the celebration of “Human Rights,” “Freedom Day,” and so on, the youth of today should come to understand the science of rights; and one day our world may become a better place to live:
