Continue ReadingI love my city, Johannesburg. With its streets paved with gold (euro-centric folk could only imagine). Mining continues to this very day. In a rather unregulated way, with “African migrants” waging wars/battling death in old mining tunnels. So much to discuss in the above paragraph. But I will start with the latter. African migration. Thankfully, […]
Continue ReadingMy aunt, my mom’s eldest sister, passed away. She was going to be 73 next month. Her death was sudden, but expected. She hadn’t been well for the last few weeks. She was hospitalised after Christmas. I like to think she died in her sleep. At peace. Aunty Marlene was a remarkable woman. Stylish. Trendy. […]

I grew up in a tiny coloured suburb called Bosmont. My life prospects were slim. I was […]

This week he speaks to EmpresS*1, well known for her Poetry 4 Grenfell project. And to top it all off, I just launched a podcast entitled, Mr and Mrs Khumalo. It’s a completely […]
Continue ReadingI guess I’m finding my voice. Blogging, I mean. That’s how this whole podcasting platform started. Off a blog I began writing during one of my earlier hospitalisations. I’m sure I mentioned before, but I spend a lot of time in my head. It’s not so bad now. And I’m trying my hand at blogging. […]
