This article utilizes a multimodal media analysis similar to Parker that takes place on three levels: (1) it connects an interview completed by professor Habib in a 2014 issue of the South African magazine publication Destiny Man, (2) with the events captured in photography of
the 2015 #FeesMustFall protest as well as (3) the events recorded an Internet documentary entitled Decolonising Wits. This critical analysis utilizes a psychosocial perspective showing strong links between these events that led to the proliferation of decolonization in South African
academic institutions as a result. The #FeesMustFall protests at Wits University is seen as a response to the inegalitarian modes of discourse present in the analysed interview, and the selected scenes of real events in the documentary film. This article includes direct quotes from that written
interview, photography from the #Feesmustfall events, and links to specific scenes in the documentary film in order to provide a multimodal approach to analysing psychosocial politics in the media.
