Inside South Africa’s Anti-Immigrant Protests: South African & Nigerian Voices Call In

In this special episode of Ladies of Sosa, we’re unpacking the rising tensions and xenophobic violence currently unfolding in South Africa. With a live caller joining us from Pretoria, South Africa and another voice calling in as a Nigerian American, we’re holding space for honest, layered conversation. This isn’t about headlines. It’s about history, hurt, survival, and solidarity. We break down: What’s happening on the ground right now Why economic frustration often turns into scapegoating How misinformation and viral protest videos fuel fear The lasting impact of apartheid-era systems Where policing, protection, and policy are falling short And most importantly — what real solutions could look like This conversation centers dignity. It refuses easy blame. And it asks a deeper question: What happens when people who have shared oppression begin to see each other as competition instead of community? This episode includes discussions of violence and xenophobic language. Listener discretion advised. Our goal is not to inflame — but to inform, humanize, and explore paths toward healing.
