In de podcast Wat Blijft een aflevering over de Zuid-Afrikaanse dichter, schrijver, schilder en anti-apartheidsactivist Breyten Breytenbach. Breytenbach werd geboren in de West-Kaap, maar vestigde zich in de jaren zestig in Parijs omdat zijn huwelijk met een Vietnamese vrouw in Zuid-Afrika niet werd geaccepteerd. Vanuit ballingschap werd hij een fel anti-apartheidsactivist. In de jaren zeventig werd hij tijdens een bezoek aan Zuid-Afrika opgepakt en veroordeeld tot negen jaar gevangenis; in 1982 keerde hij terug naar Parijs waar hij door president Mitterand tot Frans staatsburger werd verklaard. Breytenbach schreef in het Afrikaans en Engels en zijn werk wordt internationaal geprezen. Presentator Nathan de Vries praat met: *Adriaan van Dis, collega en vriend van Breytenbach die een deel van zijn werk vertaalde. *Conny Braam, schrijver en één van de oprichters van de Anti-Apartheidsbeweging Nederland. *Alfred Schaffer, dichter en docent moderne Nederlandse letterkunde aan de Universiteit van Kaapstad. *Amanda Strydom, Zuid-Afrikaanse zangeres en kleinkunstenaar. Ze veroorzaakte in 1986 een schandaal in Stellenbosch, in die tijd het ideologische centrum van de apartheid. Tijdens een cabaretvoorstelling balde ze haar vuist en riep de strijdkreet Amandla.

South African farm attacks (Afrikaans: plaasaanvalle) are violent crimes, including assault, murder, rape, and robbery, that take place on farms in South Africa. The attacks target both white and black farmers.The term has no formal legal definition, but such attacks have been the subject of discussion by media and public figures in South Africa and abroad.Claims that such attacks on farmers disproportionately target whites are a key element of the white genocide conspiracy theory promoted by, among others, Donald Trump,and have become a common talking point among white nationalists worldwide.

In 2022 riep journalist en mediamagnaat Derk Sauer de redactie van The Moscow Times bij elkaar. Het Kremlin had zijn krant tot ‘foreign agent' verklaard. Het werk als journalist onder een dictatuur was al niet gemakkelijk, maar vanaf dit moment liepen zijn medewerkers echt gevaar. De enige manier om onafhankelijk te blijven opereren, was door naar Amsterdam uit te wijken. In deze aflevering van ‘Achter de Frontlinie' is Bram te gast op deze redactie in ballingschap. De online krant, die artikelen in het Engels en Russisch publiceert, gaat binnenkort ook over op het Frans. Hiermee hoopt The Moscow Times mensen in West-Afrika van onafhankelijk nieuws over Rusland te voorzien. Derk legt uit waarom Rusland zo actief is op het Afrikaans continent, hoe enorm de impact van Kremlin-propaganda buiten Rusland is en waarom we ons hier veel drukker over zouden moeten maken.

Melt Sieberhagen has been part of South Africa's entertainment industry for over two decades - acting in beloved Afrikaans TV shows, performing stand-up, and dabbling in everything from insert directing to voice work. But beyond the credits, Melt is a sharp social observer and cultural critic who's unafraid to talk about the complexities of identity, privilege, and navigating a creative career in a country as layered as South Africa.In this episode, we reflect on Melt's comedy roots, the absurdities of Afrikaans conservatism, and what it means to perform for an audience that doesn't always want to be challenged. We dive into uncomfortable truths about race, language, and culture - from Afrikaner myth-making to the politics of pride and prejudice - all while remembering that the first job of a comic is to make people laugh. Enjoy.Keep up with Melt on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meltsieb/Support the podcast on Patreon: patreon.com/almostperfect Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
“Ek wou nooit in Afrikaans skryf nie, want ek was bang om die taal aan te vat. Al is dit my moedertaal, moes ek leer hoe om daarin te skryf en ek moes oefen, want om te kan sing en skryf is vaardighede wat jy kan verbeter.” Maroela Media

Jake Tapper's book is the worst kept secret on Joe Biden's mental and physical decline. During the 2020-2024 administration, he would berate guests for stating the obvious. Now, he has gone public on stories like Joe being in a wheelchair if he were still POTUS and him forgetting who George Clooney was. Also on the show, we break down the media's reaction to white Afrikaan refugees escaping death in South Africa and spinning it to Trump's white supremacy agenda. We also play two rounds of Impossible Memphis Trivia. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
