"Then and now."

A cartoon by Zapiro that draws a comparison between apartheid-era pass laws and modern debates around documentation and immigration. It reflects the artist's perspective on how power, identity and access continue to shape South African society.

Whether you agree or disagree with the comparison, it raises questions about history, equality, and how we apply the law today.

Johannesburg is facing one of its biggest financial crises yet.

The city's cash reserves have reportedly dropped to just five days' worth of operating funds, raising serious concerns about service delivery, infrastructure, and the future of South Africa's economic hub.

How did it get to this point—and what happens if the money runs out?

Watch the full breakdown.

Former President Jacob Zuma has reportedly visited Ajay Gupta in India, where the two were seen together at a temple in Haridwar. The visit has drawn significant attention after reports that South Africa's High Commissioner to India, Anil Sooklal, accompanied Zuma during the trip.

The Guptas remain central figures in South Africa's state capture saga, making the high-profile meeting a topic of intense political debate.

What do you make of this visit? 👇

"We are South African. We are African. We are one." 🇿🇦🌍

South Africa's greatest strength has never been fear—it has always been Ubuntu.

No person loses their humanity because they cross a border. No family becomes less deserving of dignity because of where they were born.

Our nation knows the pain of injustice, but it also knows the power of reconciliation. We overcame division by recognising our shared humanity. That same spirit is needed today.

Let fear not divide us. Let compassion unite us.

"Your dignity lives in me. My humanity lives in you."

We choose peace. We choose compassion. We choose Ubuntu.

"I owe my being to the hills and the valleys, the mountains and the glades, the rivers, the deserts, the trees, the flowers, the seas, the ever-changing seasons that define the face of our native land."

In one of the most powerful passages from *I Am an African*, this speech reminds us that South Africa belongs to all who call it home. It honours the first peoples of this land, acknowledges the tragedies of our past, and embraces every community that has shaped our nation's story.

"Our history may be complex, but our future is one we build together."

Today, as then, we can proudly say: "I am an African."

"I am an African. I have seen our country torn asunder as these, all of whom are my people, engage one another in a titanic battle. The one to redress a wrong that had been caused by one to another, and the other to defend the indefensible."

Nearly three decades later, these words remain a powerful reminder of South Africa's painful past and the ongoing responsibility to build a nation founded on justice, dignity, and unity.

History is not just something we remember—it's something we learn from.
