The inquest into the deaths of the Cradock Four has adjourned to resume on Friday at the Gqeberha High Court in the Eastern Cape. The inquest seeks to determine whether anyone can be held responsible for the killings of anti-apartheid activists Fort Calata, Matthew Goniwe, Sicelo Mhlauli, and Sparrow Mkhonto. Proceedings of the inquest have been marred by delays with former Apartheid Security Branch Officer, Eugene de Kock indicating his unavailability due to ill-health. For the latest, Sakina Kamwendo spoke to SABC Tombozuko Balintulo

Kim shares insights from her writing and work, discussing the legacy of apartheid, the challenges facing the country’s democracy, and her unfiltered take on issues of identity and power. Jesse presses with his signature bold questions, sparking moments of both tension and humor as they explore faith, leadership, and truth in a divided society. It’s a powerful exchange you won’t want to miss, as Kim opens up about her personal journey and convictions. The discussion also sheds light on the broader struggles facing not just South Africa, but the world at large.
Si la Suisse officielle a ménagé l'Afrique du Sud de l'apartheid au profit de leurs échanges commerciaux et financiers, la société civile a parfois pris une position toute différente. Aline Martello, doctorante au département d'Histoire de l'Université de Lausanne, raconte l'action du Mouvement anti-apartheid de Genève (MAAG), entre 1964 et 1971, mais aussi de l'engagement des militantes comme Michael Pentz, physicien au CERN, L'Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire, les réseaux académiques, protestants et syndicaux impliqués. Elle répond aux questions de David Glaser.

This week on The Big Picture Podcast we're joined by celebrated photographer and Oscar-nominated filmmaker Misan Harriman.Harriman has built a global following through his moving black and white photography of the world's most recognisable faces, becoming the first ever Black photographer to shoot the cover of Vogue.Since then, he made his directorial debut with the emotional short film ruminating on grief, The After, which was nominated for an Academy Award in 2024.His new documentary, Shoot The People, chronicles his own story as he travels the world drawing inspiration from the Anti-Apartheid movement in South Africa, Black Lives Matter in the US and the Gaza ceasefire movement here in the UK.But what makes Harriman stand out is what he chooses to turn his lens, and his platform, towards. Since October 7, he's been a staple of pro-Palestine rallies, searching through the crowds for individual protesters with a message that resonates with him, and showing that to the world. Before that he covered the Black Lives Matter movement, framing ordinary people in extraordinary ways, giving them the same intimate and dramatic treatment he gives to the world's rich and famous.And through his lens, he sends a message.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

Nous sommes le 29 mars 1988, à Paris. Il est un peu moins de dix heures du matin. Rue des Petites-Écuries, dans le Xe arrondissement, une femme s'apprête à ouvrir la porte des bureaux de l'ANC, le Congrès national africain. C'est là, sur le palier qu'elle est abattue soudainement de cinq balles dans la tête. Tirées à bout portant. Avec un silencieux. Elle s'appelle Dulcie September. Elle est Sud-africaine. Elle a 52 ans. C'est une militante contre l'Apartheid qu'on vient d'abattre. Une femme surveillée. Menacée. Et une victime, surtout, d'un crime politique... resté impuni. Vous écoutez un épisode des "Portraits du crime", présenté par Thomas Pierre. Un récit inédit qui retrace l'histoire et le parcours d'un personnage qui a marqué les annales des affaires criminelles.

Le 29 mars 1988, Dulcie September est assassinée au 28 rue des Petites Ecuries dans le Xe arrondissement de Paris. C'est à cette adresse qu'elle militait contre l'apartheid qui sévissait dans son pays d'origine, l'Afrique du Sud. Depuis son arrivée en France, elle enquêtait aussi sur les liens entre les deux pays, en plein embargo militaire décrété par les Nations Unies contre le régime de Pretoria. Dulcie September savait que son travail dérangeait. Elle se sentait surveillée, menacée. L'enquête ouverte pour assassinat est rapidement classée. Et encore aujourd'hui, son crime n'a jamais été élucidé. Au grand dam de ses proches et de sa famille. La voix du crime de ce premier épisode sur l'assassinat de Dulcie September, c'est Jacqueline Dérens, amie et collaboratrice de la militante anti-apartheid dans les années 80. Elle raconte au micro de Marie Zafimehy "le choc terrible" qu'a été la mort de Dulcie September, et les débuts de la première enquête ouverte par la justice française.Distribué par Audiomeans.

Vor 30 Jahren: Ende der Apartheid in der Republik Südafrika:„Free Nelson Mandela!” (5) „Free Nelson Mandela“ war der Titel eines 1984 veröffentlichen Protestliedes und zugleich das Leitmotiv der internationalen Anti-Apartheid-Bewegungen: die Freilassung Nelson Mandelas und aller anderen politischen Gefangenen. Dass es 1990 schließlich dazu kam – dazu hatte auch der internationale Druck beigetragen. Über Hoffnungen und Hindernisse - Mit: Walter Sauer, Historiker, ehemaliger Vorsitzender der österreichischen Anti-Apartheid-Bewegung und Vorsitzender des Kooperations- und Dokumentationszentrums Südliches Afrika SADOCC - Sendung vom 20.9.2024
Vor 30 Jahren: Ende der Apartheid in der Republik Südafrika:„Free Nelson Mandela!” (4) Die Anti-Apartheid-Bewegung hatte zwei Stoßrichtungen: einerseits die weiße Apartheidregierung in Südafrika zu boykottieren und zu isolieren, und andererseits, Solidarität mit der unterdrückten schwarzen und farbigen Bevölkerung zu zeigen. Das geschah auf entwicklungspolitischer, aber auch auf kultureller Ebene, um die es in diesem Teil der Reihe geht - Mit: Margit Niederhuber, Aktivistin, Kulturmanagerin und Dramaturgin - Sendung vom 19.9.2024
Vor 30 Jahren: Ende der Apartheid in der Republik Südafrika:„Free Nelson Mandela!” (3) Internationale Antiapartheid-Bewegungen hatten dazu beigetragen, Druck auf die weiße Apartheidregierung in Südafrika aufzubauen.

My guest this episode is the distinguished Kumi Naidoo - a human rights and climate justice activist. Naidoo first began his journey at the age of 15 fighting against the then apartheid government in South Africa by organising school boycotts. He was arrested several times for civil disobedience and when the government imposed a state of emergency, he was forced to go underground and flee to the UK, where he became a Rhodes scholar. He eventually returned to South Africa in 1990 when Mandela was released from jail, and went onto play a vital role in shaping the then African National Congress. His steadfast work in the human rights and justice sphere led him to become the first person from the global south to head Greenpeace International and later, Secretary General of Amnesty International. From scaling oil rigs to protest against the fossil fuel industry to sitting down with the likes of Tony Blair, Angela Merkel and Putin, Naidoo has become one of the prominent voices in the climate justice movement. He continues to represent Africans Rising for Justice, Peace, and Dignity as a Global Ambassador and currently holds the position of Distinguished visiting lecturer at Stanford University's Center for Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law. In this conversation, we discuss the tragic human crisis unfolding in Palestine to climate urgency and how the climate crisis is interlinked with human rights.

When a defiant opponent of the apartheid government was assassinated during the Easter weekend in 1993, South Africans were certain that all hell would break loose. The country was slowly moving towards the dismantling of the apartheid system and transition to a true democracy. But the murder of Chris Hani, carried out by a white supremacist in broad daylight, threatened to provoke a civil war and rollback the peace process. Were there other extremists, potentially even members of the government, involved in this plot to rid the nation of Chris Hani, a popular heir apparent to anti-apartheid activist, Nelson Mandela? Rookie journalist Justice Malala was one of the first reporters at the crime scene over three decades ago. His latest book, The Plot to Save South Africa, takes readers on a riveting, nine-day account of what transpired and how a country on the brink survived falling into a civil war. Join us as I SEE U host Eddie Robinson chats candidly with renown political commentator and best-selling author, Justice Malala. The award-winning storyteller will dive deep into how Mandela's leadership style and his ability to reach out to adversaries ultimately set the stage for a new South Africa. As we continue to highlight untold cultural histories throughout February, Malala will also take a provocative look at how a system that Hani so relentlessly fought for until his death, ironically helped save the life of the assassin who sought to eradicate his life's work.
