This conversation with Professor Emerita Debbie Epstein explores her political activism in
South Africa and academic works in the United Kingdom (UK). In particular, the interview
focuses on her political involvement against the Apartheid system, which caused her to leave
the country six months after starting her undergraduate study at the University of the
Witwatersrand. Moreover, the interview discusses Epstein’s transition to the UK and her work
on gender and education, elite schools, anti-racist education and Southern theories. This
interview contributes to understanding factors that affect access and equity in education.
