Under the shadow of Table Mountain, Palestinian students who escaped the destruction in Gaza gathered at the University of Cape Town to graduate, turning pain into pride. Their ceremony was more than just a celebration—it was a powerful symbol of hope, resilience, and new beginnings far from war. South Africans, remembering their own struggles, welcomed these students with open hearts, sharing a bond of solidarity and the dream of justice. This moment showed how, even in dark times, education and kindness can light the way to a better future.
