A podcast by the Nelson Mandela Foundation about Freedom. In 1994, South Africa became a democracy, an event that is often credited for ushering in freedom for South Africa. However, there are many significant residues of Apartheid that remain - in our globally unmatched levels of inequality, the persistence of racism and sexism, and many other areas. In the ’freedomafter’, what have we done to gain the freedom that we have, and what must we do to gain more freedom? 

In this series, we speak with poet and author, Maneo Mohale; artist, Siyabonga Mthembu; organiser and author, Kelly-Eve Koopman; sangoma, Vuyiswa Xekatwane; veteran activist, Mark Heywood; acclaimed actor, Mpume Mthombeni; teacher and author, Karen Hurt; as well as law professor, Tshepo Madlingozi about freedom.
