S04E06: Nosipho Maketo-van den Bragt — Art, Change & Community
Growing up in Apartheid South Africa, Nosipho Maketo-van
den Bragt recognized that there was something “off” about the
world around her, but it wasn’t until her family moved to
Zimbabwe at the age of 10 that she saw what life could be
like.
Becoming a lawyer was an act of rebellion, a way of
fighting for herself and for her community, but it was the
creation of Chocolate Tribe, the studio she founded with her
husband, that has fully visualized Nosipho’s vision of a
better world, one that is equal, open, vibrant, and
creative.
We recently had the opportunity to speak with Nosipho about
being a child in a household of active rebellion, the pressure
of being a woman in a role of authority, and the importance of
making time for yourself.
