The bubbling renaissance

Imagine you saw yourself represented in the media with Aphiwe Mame

The SA film and television industry is yet to face a reckoning in this country. The collapse of the SABC has left us with for-profit organisations that don't have the mandates that force them to tell stories that are, first and foremost, riveting, but, most importantly, tell real and true stories of the people in this country. Is the role of the media to mirror us, to conscientise and educate, or simply to entertain? Please comment, like, subscribe, and share. Follow us everywhere @theellipsispodcast

The bubbling renaissance

This episode was such a joy to record. My guest, Tsoana Nhlapo is a traditional healer who is realising her gift and work of being a healer of ancestral lands. In this episode, we first spoke about her journey to becoming a traditional healer. We then got into how her journey got her to know about her purpose on Earth then we got into talking about how knowing your purpose is so important and the revolution we actually need.

Seeing Freedom from their eyes

Indlela ibuzwa kwabaphambili In a time when anyone can change how we see history, we MUST commune with our elders. The ones who have seen history unfold. Our living museums full of rich stories and all the facts on our history. I am so honoured to have had the opportunity to commune with my parents to hear of their lives during apartheid and their transition into a free South Africa. What you find when you ask people about their lives, you see how the system was at play whether they are aware or not. And that really is the point of it. I hope this conversation encourages you to have such conversations with your family or even friends, what you hear may surprise you. Please leave a comment, share and subscribe to the podcast.
