Politricking with Tshidi Madia - Advocate Kholeka Gcaleka

In the finale episode of Season 6, Dr Brigalia Bam joins Tshidi Madia in studio to reflect on three decades of South Africa’s democracy — from managing the country’s first democratic elections to the unfinished work of dismantling apartheid. She shares candid thoughts on voter apathy, youth disengagement, gender-based violence, and the trauma that lingers from the past. Dr Bam also calls for a rethinking of policies and leadership skills. She highlights the challenges of policy-making in a post-apartheid society, questions whether the current government has the skills to drive meaningful change, and unpacks the lasting impact of trauma and inequality. Lastly, she speaks about the upcoming national dialogue and highlights the importance and the purpose of the dialogue in the long term.
