Meet Bathabile
Bathabile Mthombeni
Founder & Principal
For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by how societies work and by how power is distributed in society. As a child born under Apartheid in South Africa I learned very early on that, often, distinctions are made between people on the basis of their identities and different amounts of value are attributed to people on the basis of those distinctions. To be blunt and specific, I learned that White people had decided that they were superior to Black people and deserved to own and control everything.
My nationality on my birth certificate reads: Republic of South Africa Undetermined. My parents managed to bring my siblings and me to the United States and we eventually became Resident Aliens. I was an Undetermined Resident Alien. My identity was erased. I belonged no where.
I found myself preoccupied by my desire to understand how identity-based systems of oppression develop and what supports their foundations.
I was keen to understand how these systems grow beyond those who establish them and, generation after generation, become deeply entrenched into collective beliefs and value systems.
I wanted to understand what sustains these systems and why they are so difficult to dismantle.
