During my course of studying social justice at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, I examined various dictators such as Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Benito Mussolini, Idi Amin and Adolf Hitler.

Like US President Donald Trump, they, too, spoke impulsively and terrifyingly. They were all accepted and became disappointments.

During turbulent times we often see the rise of fascists, supremacist ideology and dictatorial rule.
