The 77 Percent

28. 5.22:30 → 23:00

The 77 Percent is in South Africa to take the pulse of the country as it prepares for this year’s elections. We ask young people what they expect of their next leader. In our street debate, Edith Kimani finds out how corruption scandals, inequality, and injustice have impacted confidence in South Africa’s democracy. Later we meet an artist who shows us his home city of Soweto.
