SayProCMR 2025 Human Rights Day Speech By Israel Bassie Medupe Non-Executive Member, SayPro Royal Committee
Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends and Family of SayPro, Elders, Leaders, Youth, and Partners,
I greet you all with deep respect and humility.
It is with great honour that I stand before you today, not only as a Non-Executive Member of the SayPro Royal Committee, but as a servant of the people — a voice guided by heritage, rooted in truth, and committed to justice.
Today, we gather to commemorate Human Rights Day. A day etched in the heart of our country. A day that reminds us of the blood, pain, and courage that brought us freedom. A day that calls us not only to remember — but to act.
On this day, we honour those who laid down their lives in Sharpeville. We honour the cries that echoed through time, demanding not just equality, but dignity. Demanding not just freedom, but the right to be seen, to belong, to thrive.
But Human Rights Day is not only about the past. It is a living call to action. A call to ensure that the rights of our people are not just written in law — but lived in reality.
As a Royal Committee Member, I come from a tradition where leadership is sacred. Where service is a duty. And where the wellbeing of the people stands above all else. It is in this spirit that I say: true freedom must feed the hungry, employ the jobless, educate the young, protect the vulnerable, and honour our women, elders, and children.
SayPro understands this deeply. That’s why this organisation is not waiting for change — it is building it. Village by village. Project by project. Voice by voice.
From skills training to youth empowerment, from digital inclusion to community development — SayPro is not only upholding human rights. It is activating them.
But we must do more.
We must defend the rights of those still living in silence.
We must restore the dignity of those forgotten.
We must raise the standard of leadership — so that justice is not delayed, and hope is not denied.As a Royal voice within SayPro, I will continue to champion the intersection between culture, modern development, and justice. Because true transformation must honour where we come from — while building where we are going.
To the young person who feels powerless — I say: You are powerful.
To the mother struggling to feed her children — You are not alone.
To the community leader with no support — You are seen.And to those of us with influence, access, and opportunity — I remind you: we carry a responsibility to lift others as we rise.
Let Human Rights Day not be a single commemoration — but a daily commitment.
Let us not only speak rights — but live them, defend them, and extend them to every corner of this country and beyond.May SayPro continue to be a force for dignity, equity, and empowerment.
May we continue to walk together, with purpose, courage, and love for our people.Thank you.
God bless SayPro. God bless our communities. God bless South Africa.Israel Bassie Medupe

SayProCMR 2025 Human Rights Day SpeechBy Timothy Mogoro, Non-Executive MemberSayPro Royal Committee
Delivered on Human Rights Day – 21 March 2025
Distinguished guests, SayPro leadership, community partners, and fellow citizens,
Good day to you all.
It is both an honour and a privilege to address you today on behalf of the SayPro Royal Committee as we gather to mark Human Rights Day 2025 — a day of remembrance, reflection, and reaffirmation.
As we pause to remember the lives lost in the Sharpeville Massacre of 1960, we do so with solemnity and purpose. Those brave men and women did not die in vain. They stood — unarmed but unshaken — against the might of an unjust system. And because they stood, we walk in freedom today.
Yet, let us be honest: Human Rights Day is not just about memory — it is about accountability.
It is about asking ourselves:
- Are we truly living up to the promise of the Constitution?
- Are we doing enough to protect the vulnerable, the voiceless, the forgotten?
- Are we building a society where dignity is not a privilege for a few, but a right for all?
As a Non-Executive Member of the SayPro Royal Committee, I am proud to be part of a body that exists not only to advise, but to represent the moral conscience of our communities. Our role is to ensure that as SayPro grows, it never forgets why it was born: to serve, to uplift, and to transform.
We are not just here to lead — we are here to listen.
We are not just here to represent tradition — we are here to guide innovation with wisdom.
Because the struggle for human rights is not over — it has simply evolved.Today, human rights mean ensuring our young people have access to education that prepares them for the future.
It means ensuring women and girls live free from violence and discrimination.
It means ensuring economic justice, job creation, and access to land and resources are not delayed any further.And in all these areas, SayPro is doing remarkable work. From youth empowerment and digital literacy to social development and community outreach — we are building the very future the Sharpeville heroes dreamed of.
But let us be clear: progress is not permanent unless we protect it.
And rights are not truly rights until they are real in everyday life.That is why I call upon all leaders, civil servants, traditional authorities, and every citizen — to stand up for justice, not just in speeches, but in service.
Let us build systems that are fair, not only functional.
Let us invest in people, not only policies.
Let us honour the past by refusing to accept any form of inequality today.As the Royal Committee, we are committed to walking with SayPro — not behind, not above, but alongside — to ensure that every programme, every decision, and every initiative reflects the values of Ubuntu, integrity, and accountability.
In closing, let us remember this:
Human rights are not a gift from government.
They are not a slogan on paper.
They are a birthright — and it is up to all of us to protect them.Thank you. May the spirit of Human Rights Day live not only in our hearts, but in our hands.
