when it comes to the fans. who have to trust us. this is news africa coming up in the next 15 minutes the rising stars shaping the future of bayfield the 1st ever time in the next 100 most influential people. the africans who made the cut. and the foreigners off. south africa in focus one of the country's most recognized analyst sits at the table with me.

hello welcome to news africa it's good to have you along. humbled to quote the man himself the pop star turned politician has just been named as time magazine's next 100 most influential people up and coming influences to watch wind that this is. dedicating this recognition to the young people off uganda is especially the ghetto youth may this be a reminder and encouragement that you're not what your detractors say you are you all what you choose to be. the deadly africa. is here with me for more on that inaugural estate on me so who else made the list there are 8 other africans on this list or highlight a few 1st the kenyan filmmaker and writer when eureka here she is

one who has been in the news lately she has got 2 prominent films out of portfolio the 1st as ponzi aside 5 in the 2nd is called are a few key there are a few key was in the news because it's a film about 2 girls or young women who fall in love in a homophobic society and that raised a lot of eyebrows in kenya because it even though this film did well and was premiered at cannes film festival in 2018 it was banned back home in kenya and she's actually sued the government for banning this film so that's currently in court because of her raising awareness about the issue about discrimination and homophobia in kenya that's one of the reasons why she has been recognized now another issue our phones our computers they are learning more about us they're getting smarter and they can for example tell who we are by look in our faces and one of those problems though that comes up is with certain people they don't get

identified very easily and that here comes in the 2nd person where dent if i may that is joy. sorry she is again an american scientist is identifying bias in algorithms and she's saying that there are certain issues within the system for example certain faces like black women are unlikely to be as accurately identified as certain people like white men and she's doing more to expose that and make sure that companies the big companies you know the microsoft and i.b.m. and and those do more. more in their research because the machines do what you tell them to do and writing do more research to get certain types of people women and ethnic minorities recognized by these machines. and then the 3rd is shown or show will be a nigerian avocate who's been calling for more support for rape victims across the

country and also better legislation to protect them while these are incredible people but tell me if this is the 1st time as we've mentioned that we're getting this this what makes it different to the list that we used to just the 100 most influential people for these are people who are the seen as shaping the future of their fields and they've come up in unconventional less conventional ways than the usual time $100.00 power people you know world leaders and world entertainers and these are people who are coming up in a different way who are being recognized for their new way of getting to the top and being recognized in their various fields so we see new fall in film in fashion in advocates see even in politics as well but they're coming up not the traditional way and that's why they've been recognized excellent well that's exciting stuff and proud of all of them for making the cats that's the date of the africa's told me a logical thank you.

the 1st demonstrations fall in cannot create at the city's knol good mahan's all counting the debts off for a month of protests the president they all feel condé is due to step down next year with the 2nd and final 5 year tim expires but he has refused to rule out running again and aussies government should look into drafting a new constitution. a funeral procession for victims killed mourners and police clashed again yet more deaths just one incident in a month of violence anti-government protesters have been taking to the streets in guinea's capital conakry confronted by security forces 16 young people dead since demonstrations began last month says the anti-government f n d c movement. but we're here to express our anger at the fact that 16 year olds have been shot dead in their backyards. we're here to express our anger because canadians must have the right in 29000 to express themselves without being shot in

cold blood. test demonstrations have shown that this is possible so there was a deliberate desire to kill people to frighten them to put a wall of silence over guinea the protests stem from fears that incumbent president alpha condé wants to change the constitution to allow him a 3rd term in office under the current rules only adopted in 2010 his current term would be his last condo's government crackdown on dissent has international observers alarmed we do. between generally 2015 and october 2900 we have counted more than 70 people who have died in the context of demonstrations that's according to testimony as we have received but also the i mean missions we found on the scene. the security forces are involved in at least 59 of these deaths this is a very significant number even though we know that demonstrations and kinney can sometimes turn violent and he's acted if you don't with guinea's elections set for

2020 amnesty international has warned of mounting human rights violations and attacks on dissenting voices committed by security forces. now african refugees in south africa have been demanding to be moved to other countries because they feel it's in a full of it attacks now since last month there's been a group camped outside the u.n.h.c.r. as offices in the capital pretoria business the south african president condemning the attacks in september no amount of and. and frustration and grievance can justify such acts off wanton destruction and criminality. there can be no excuse for the attacks on the homes and businesses of foreign nationals just as there can be no excuse whatsoever for xenophobia or any form of intolerance all right well it's in

baby is a south african political analyst he's also a brother to the country's former president i will take you mr beck it's lovely to have you relate as the we're hearing the south african president condemning the the attacks on foreign nationals in south africa something that made headlines across the continent you recently wrote an opinion piece and you said it comes down to you called it directionless political elite elaborate on that well what i was referring to was in our relations follows the relations between south africa and the rest of africa. the political elite which include the president you've just seen they really have no direction as to what kind of relationship they want south africa to have with the rest of. so a whole lot of issues that should be monies properly like immigration like the more

those like are not managed properly because of this lack of direction right they're not very clear about what's out there for girls national interests and how they should protect them so those but what i meant by the lack of direction ok so speaking off the political elites you became a very critical or you were very critical of a post filled by this presidency under jacob zuma and i think i recall you actually say questioning the relevance of policy i wonder what your thinking is today do you think the a.n.c. is still a relevant party to take south africa forward and if not what what is the also in it where will they see is like many of the liberation movements enough are. they for. fought against colonialism and that gays the party. but they're not very good to governing the country afterwards and they are no different from other liberation movements in the rest of the continent in zambia in styles and

here and saw so so this is one of the problems we have but just insult offered but enough are good as a whole is that the liberation parties don't have a clear agenda on how to change the comic system that the karunya list put in place and that's what's at the bottom of the problem we have so i hear you but but do we also not have a problem on the continent way the electorate lacks an opposition fallback and in the case of south africa if you're talking to a black south african if it's not the a.n.c. who should they feel full. well the fate of the $200.00 to go reduce the bullet to go but is in south africa so the liberty to do one of those 2 of those $200.00 political parties doesn't it's upon that there is that that there is no real credible opposition i mean just recently in south africa they've been issues

with the main opposition party elements of racism seen of black faith is leaving the policy it's insinuating that racism was behind all of that doesn't it just goes to show that in as much as we criticize the liberation movements they are rated little else it is for people to choose from the i don't in the us correct if you look for example if zimbabwe or zombie are let me give you a better example of them build their opposition party movement for multiparty democracy was. in zambia mainly by the trade unions but by other players it won an open election and it defeated the long serving and it's not correct to say they have no opposition party to the in enough because i must interrupt here because there's one thing i want to i want to get we still talk about i have to be one of the world's most unequal societies today quickly do you think that taking land from white people to give it to black people is the only

way to traces equalities no no definitely if it weren't address the quality of those love it taking land from what from a and giving it to be is not a solution to southern africa is the new quality the we can spend for you and me here discussing the economic history of the political you still sell them for but so that for days they cut that list and in a cup it was so sad to small groups of capital is whether they're black or white oh don't lend own means of production one percent of the english population own all the land in the. if you distribute to that land to the 70000000 english people you'll get a little garden. but will not be a solution to your agriculture right. and i wish we had more time but that is all

we can do for say. thank you very much for coming on africa great to be and that is the amount. as always you can catch all our stories on our website and baseball think it's still next time it's i. i'm not going to think out of the gym well i guess sometimes i am but i stand up in which you. think stevens or german culture looking at the stereotype requests but if you think the future of the country that i don't. fear community prepared for this crime on their own you know that's all that ok. i'm rachel joins me from the german sunday. post is going to. monitor.
