Food and cooking are meant to be fun.” Billy Gallagher (Honorary President of South African Chefs Association). Zhoozsh! Faking It, is a cook book which includes 61 recipes divided into starters, salads and soups, main dishes (comprising meat, chicken, fish and vegetarian dishes, as well as many casseroles), desserts and titbits that don’t fall into the other categories, such as Potato Bread and Zhoozshed Biltong. All are extremely easy and quick to prepare, while still designed to impress. About the authors: Jeremy Mansfield is a former host of the Rude Awakening breakfast show on 94.7 Highveld Stereo has become a household name across the country. He has hosted various TV shows including SABC’s “A Word or Two”, was a guest presenter on Front Row, presented “Laugh out Loud” on M-Net and has appeared on a number of talk and lifestyle shows. He received honorary membership of the South African Chefs Association, in recognition of his tremendous contribution to the development of previously disadvantaged South African chefs. He currently hosts CNBCAfrica’s “Mansfield on Money”. Jacqui Mansfield is a freelance journalist and the author of the best selling An Unpopular War (written under her maiden name of Jacqui Thompson). She is a former game ranger and travel guide, and would rather watch paint dry than cook. She’s a conservationist, recycler and vegetarian.

- Description: The Department of Journalism, Film and Television in partnership with the UJ Library invites you to a discussion with Jani Allan, the author of Jani Confidential – A Memoir About the book: Those who remember the Just Jani column in the Sunday Times will be intrigued and delighted. Those who missed out on those heady times will be captivated by this universal story of betrayal, back-stabbing and life in the very fast lane. It is acerbic, witty, wry, bittersweet and exquisitely penned. She describes how she became a columnist, and reveals much of life behind the scenes at the Sunday Times. Jani shares details of the crucial interview with Eugène Terre’blanche, details that will shake the preconceptions and ruffle more than a few feathers. Jani’s reputation is reduced to tatters when she takes on UK’s Channel4 in a law suit that reverberated around the world and kept the public baying for blood. But in all this we are able to see the real Jani Allan behind the fabulous brittle creature that the tabloids tore to shreds and devoured and then spat out. Facilitator: Dr Ylva Rodny-Gumede, University of Johannesburg Date: 16 April 2015 Time: 16:30 for 17:00 Venue: Auditorium (6th Floor), APK Library, University of Johannesburg (corner Kingsway and University Road, Auckland Park) RSVP: By Friday, 14 April 2015 to Theodorah Modise on licevents@uj.ac.za / 011 559 2264

- Description: The UJ Deputy Vice Chancellor Research, Postgraduate Studies and Library, Prof Tshilidzi Marwala, together with the Centre for the Study of Democracy (CSD) and the UJ Library invites you for the launch of Professor Steven Friedman’s latest book: Race, Class and Power Harold Wolpe and the Radical Critique of Apartheid Race, Class and Power examines Wolpe’s work in the political, intellectual and social contexts in which it was developed and to which it gave form. Drawing on interviews with those he worked with, disagreed with and inspired, the book also maps his influence on ideas and the culture that emerged in anti-apartheid circles in the 1970s. Wolpe’s writing is a prism through which South African society can be viewed; this book is an intellectual biography both of Wolpe and of South Africa’s left. Race, Class and Power also assesses and engages with the ongoing impact of Wolpe’s ideas into the post-apartheid present. Moreover, it suggests how Wolpe’s work can move us towards a way of thinking about and acting upon South Africa’s realities differently.
