In this weeks episode of the Wide Awake Podcast I speak to Welcome Witbooi. We talked about how he went from a 12 year old runner for a gang in the Cape Flats to being the leader of the Numbers Gang in Pollsmoor prison!

In this weeks episode of the Wide Awake Podcast I spoke to former gang member, Thando. His journey is unique because instead of joining a street gang he chose to stand alone in Africa’s most dangerous city, Cape Town.

During this episode we discussed his childhood and how he transformed from an innocent kid to a ruthless gangster. Thando also shared his experiences inside Pollsmoor, South Africa's most notorious prison. We delved into the story of the Numbers Gang, how he survived after being shot 11 times, his confrontations with other street gangs and the reasons behind his decision to leave his life of crime. Thando also shared some of the most unbelievable stories I have ever heard and much more..

SPONTANEOUS WORSHIP AT TY BELLO'S FT. TY BELLO, NARDINE NABIL in AFRICA AWAKE
I've listened to experts speculate on how Africa may lose in its war against COVID 19. Corners of the earth with seemingly more robust infrastructure have been infiltrated and broken .. by this outbreak .Indeed.. the planet as a whole was not ready for this..
While there may be legitimate concerns about our fate .. I believe there is still the option of considering .. in hope ..that this could very well be AFRICA’S FINEST MOMENT if we awake and unite in the face of this impending doom . .. We must again understand that we are a very important part of this puzzle ... every life on every continent is .plus we are all now more connected than we’ve ever been.. Every triumph and mistake made by any must cause all others to humble them selves and learn.. quickly !..
God help us as we pray for answers still .. for the science and medicine .. wisdom and courage for our leaders .. healing and restoration ..we pray for all mankind ...but As we open up to hope ,we do the right things we know to do . For now ... we STAY HOME .. STOP THE SPREAD AND FLATTEN THE CURVE.. I believe we will .. so AWAKE AFRICA .. ARISE AND STAND TALL #TOGETHER!

In this documentary, we take you inside South Africa’s whites-only town, Orania.

Orania is home to around 3,000 residents and if you want to live there, you have to meet certain requirements. The first and most important is that you have to be a White Afrikaner. Afrikaners are descendants of Dutch settlers who played a key role in establishing and enforcing apartheid. Additionally, residents must be Calvinist Christians, have a clean criminal record, and exclusively speak Afrikaans within the enclave.

Despite its size, Orania is a self-sufficient community with its own local government, currency, flag, college, farms, bank, airstrip, and their own rules. The community's growth and ambitions are notable, yet it remains deeply controversial. Critics label Orania as racist, while supporters argue it is a place for cultural preservation and self-determination. This ongoing debate highlights the complexities of Orania's existence in modern-day South Africa.

I want to find out the truth about Orania and see it for myself. What drives people to live in such a secluded and controversial place? How do they balance their ideals with modern South Africa? By making the 9-hour journey from Cape Town, I hope to answer these questions, meet the locals, and share the real story of this unique community.

Thanks to Orania's team for providing some extra footage.
