During the Debate on State Of Nation Address 2022, Inkatha Freedom Party Chief Whip, Narend Singh said that “it’s painful to be a young, gifted and black female when labour and economic opportunities are inaccessible”. Singh reminded President Cyril Ramaphosa that black women bore the brunt of the unemployment and that unemployment has only risen since the last State Of Nation Address. Last year, more than 40% of black women were unemployed and formed part of the 2 million jobs losses since 2020. In light of this, we discuss the impact unemployment has on mental health and their families. Our next guest will share her experience of unemployment. She discusses her struggle with depression, the lack of psychosocial support available within communities and how she got her life back on track.

Spiritual practice has undergone a dramatic modern resurgence as more and more people seek guidance from the ‘higher powers’ given the complexities of our world today. This week, we focus on the spiritual practice of cleansing. In previous weeks, we had discussed on connecting with spirituality and how having sex with multiple partners can have spiritual implications. How do people who go through the process of cleansing? How does this process work? Under what circumstances, outside of sexual relations, would this process apply? What is the symbolism when it comes to bodies of water and cleansing?
