She explained how Chapter 9s can become vehicles for citizens to articulate their needs and to find remedies outside of party politics for the promotion of social justice, where social justice can be defined as refusing to be "normalized into an unjust world that excludes those who are different or disadvantaged, (but) rather (contributes) to building a kinder, more socially just world: a world that celebrates diversity and upholds equal rights and full inclusion for all.” 

She suggested that the biggest challenge presently is the current view of the state of majoritarian rule in which the people become a problem to be solved, rather than a majority to be represented. Khulumani welcomes opporutnities to engage with students on issues of organised citizens using the law and institutions to support democracy and to deal with the threats to building an inclusive society in South Africa.
