On the cusp of Youth Day, celebrated yesterday, People's Post talked to some of the young people about their thoughts about South Africa.

Riyaan Manan says: Being part of the youth of SA is amazing. Being surrounded by so many cultures and such a wide variety of awesome people our country truly is such a wonderful place for oiuryour youth.
Esethu Zawukana says: Being a youth in South Africa means being the voice of change. We are living in a country with so many opportunities, but also many challenges. It’s up to us to speak out, stay informed and push for better education, mental health support and job creation. Yes, Youth Month reminds me of the sacrifices made in 1976, but now it’s our turn to lead.
