to i asked a little surprised. hi, irish, and i am ready to dive into the hands of the gentleman who to us. you have you have a one to talk to me before you go to the spot and unexpected side to side. does it board, are you that a gun with wood land? it's all like this and another would struggle to barely afford read. some people have access to all of the luxuries well on this. these parts are working very hard, can barely money to rent that if any quality and also young african how does it affect you? and how can you bring about change to address stomach and equality across the continent? this is exactly what we'll be discussing today on the subbing 7 percent show. i am your host michael team coming up.

asked database in cape town, explores how young people view any policy and how to change it. then we go to legal sweat below. last live only a few clematis from the biggest lucas lounge and the wealth. and in my own will be made stone phase boom. bob with 5 simple environmental equations. when you do a quick google search of the richest cities in africa, you'll find johannes, back and cape town, top the list in kept house central business district. here it has some of the most expensive real estates on the continent. however, in that same city, there's widespread poverty, mostly among people of color. it'd begin today's show by exploring the reasons behind this situation. in cape town, it's been a struggle for k, tony and for many years now, the side for affordable housing and an afford of life in intimacy to cape town. so

gabriel class was canceled the outskirts of the city. it's a problem, boots on a historical divide of race and class aims of advocate in cape done specifically, we can see a very clear mark. you guys should even 50 is of the democracy way. black in color . people are still living in the city of the city in the city that so $2800000.00 tourists arriving at the airport one year alone and which attract for and companies and digital. no much social justice, we'd see cape town is failing to provide for each end of the cbd. we've got a lot of identification in terms of forensic coffee shops. it'd be in bees. but then we've also got your business as you informed today to um and you'll, you'll government buildings and some more up to the hill on the basis you've got. he started b white's areas with that into the even too expensive. why people do for hit the stage to get a glimpse of the outskirts. pick up gabriel and he's home area of the cape plots

around 20 kilometers from the sea to center. the cape flats have to come and fame us with a high crime rate and luck of opportunities formed in the 1950s. be well a result of an apply to era low. the group areas act, which falls to people of color out of mixed see to neighborhoods traditionally segregated areas. back in the city district 6. a place where gabriel believes his great grandfather might have lived or walked. is one of the main in the city sites of forced to remove all the pleasure of the same. it is the central business district, it's. it is where opportunities, all social and economic opportunities on colored black people. just people of color were moved from the space forcibly to are tied up with a lift with 0 water sanitation options, not decent housing. and so people's entire livelihoods were uprooted in one night.

unlike gabriel activist and who may cut jordan, peters has managed to stay in the c t. so travel where she needs that he's an old industrial neighborhood and the city is least crazy. this is a section that is so integral to who i am as the closest you know, and people see it as a squarespace. and so i think the politicization comes in when you realize, actually this doesn't make sense. the small sub list of radical books to in a neighboring sub is one of the few places that do it and fields she and other activities can meet, organize, and freely exchange views. and what a young kid tony is like jordan and gabriel. i'm trying to make sense of it, or they, together with the other locals continued to push for inclusion in the city that they call or unfortunately, south africa continues to hold that and be able title of being one of the most on it cool countries in the world, what does this mean?

the wealth of the country is cost increase at largely in the hands of a few. 30 years ago when nelson mandela proclaimed to the rainbow nation. many software guns hoped for the end of racial and economic division. but just a few seem to have made it into the business and left for the vast majority. racial inequality still seems unchanged. but now there are students and young activists who are fighting to create a federal south africa. it is, commodity meets some of them and this week streets debate the hello and welcome back to the 7 to 7 profess, rick debates. my name is edith kimani, and this week we are back in cape town, south africa. now this is a city that's used to being the best i can any categories, but it's also a citric grappling with the legacy of apartheid economic decide which is to continue to rule the day here. as of today, we're trying to find out best yes,

but best for who, who better to answer this question for me then some lovely south africans. i don't want to touch with no mind because we were speaking yesterday on the phone and your born free. right. and yet you were telling me that you already disillusioned. why my dissolutions meant absolutely comes from the idea that of the city is with men to be admitted to seem like a society, a democracy that has everything together. but in fact, we are regressing, in what ways do you think you'll, regressing, particularly me? i come from a student's background, so i particularly see that when we discuss finance in the students sick, the of course education is the backbone of any society. but access to education is something in south africa that has been reserved for those who can afford it. so okay, so we'll come back to that in just a short while, but to bundle you live here, right. so you were born and raised in cape town. can you tell me what the situation is like for the average best and living in the city?

i think as, as know, mind as i said, if you don't have access to the sources, you have to have the, the, the lock should be to have access to it. you on the backbone. so yes we now we have beautiful, but of gave me on the phone, but the is so many different spaces to this. when people think cape tom, they think money, luxury. but we also have the cape flats. what's life like that? a decent every day on the death of a young person every day to be more specific, hopelessness of feeling a total poverty. people living in shack they depend on government guns. they depend on some suggestions for food as so it's, it's, it's quite a, it's quite a different in an adult place um from what are you seeing right now? okay, let me bring and tell me who is representing the d a which is a very popular particular in cape town. i mean, it must not be nice to hear that young people feel disillusioned and they haven't even been a life to, to years. what's not working as a young person myself,

i can be like to some with the same to me instead of being shaved here today. but as someone also works with the municipality is one of the youngest sconces in the county. i can say that's great down isn't a fault based to position compared to other municipalities at on the 20. and i'm speaking about the report from the auditor. jingle eunice research support staff is a telling us that more jobs are created your area than any of us at the. let me ask costa kona here because you will not be afraid of speaking the truth. in fact, you confronted some of the leadership in this city, in your opinion, what with the disconnect cape zone has been ticket is the most, i think was the site in the world under the leadership of both the and see which is a company in potty and liberation movement as well as under the democratic alliance is based on inequality is one of the biggest issues since the dawn of freedom in south africa. we have not seen any single affordable units being built in the,

in the state to, to and to the legacy of updates. black and brown people are subjected to having to live in communities with basic services are not provided. and this is, it is not the voice to from the historical and deep violent history that we have in south africa. that's known white people were subjected to such conditions. yeah. okay, let me hear from gentlemen here. i think we want to touch about the exist it because she's only those who can afford the one who can access the education. but the question is, what are those who can afford that those who are minority to induce count? because the majority of people's lives in the account, they can't afford fees to i, even the government, the increase fees each and every, the amount of time to see those who can't afford don't these, they've accessed education costs, it's only so the biggest issue we had some stuff in kind relation to each occasion is that a lot of that just patients do exist. a lot of policy is beautiful constituents and praised worldwide. the biggest issue we have is

a lack of political will to actually implement all of these promises that you see now constitution from the very basic things of like get towards that into a home, getting a toilet. all right, but that's just, that's wrong because when i read the data, specifically about the tape, talk, the numbers a winning the ninety's when it comes to access to want to electricity data. so it surprises me that you're telling me people don't have running what types of homes you're going as they may have today. how many toilets will it be? will it be bringing to inform us that there is no plan? how is it that a weather event municipality doesn't have a plan for up to 60 percent of its population, which doesn't have access to basic save uses? good question. let us a d. a representative here. the focus on k down is insane, but that's the passion, faithful being the based on municipality in south africa. and if you look at the success its the lease by the quarterly labor full survey offsets ac, you will see that the city of cape dunn has created over 80 percent of all new jobs

in south africa. that is more then housing and it dequina combined together. so even though the city of cape town may have a 1000000 of challenges both socially and economically, i cannot allow emotional arguments to take over without looking at the facts. so let me hear from you because your part of the students need a sheep. tell me how housing affects education excess in general because the 2 seem to go hand in hand, right? yeah, i think you're right because the effects of students coming from even another provings to come to side the for sure. the kind of sleep on the streets, they need to, elsie. but cape town, if the owners with syndicate makes it very difficult for someone to come from an immediate class, they may be or in the last name in it because of what housing. if you go can you, can you give me an idea of how much it would cost to rent a house as a student, for example, for a month. and um, we must be talking about $8.00 to $200000.00, which you have to pay for one to 10 months. this needs to meet as close of 10009002 month total of talking about

a student who would don't have that in mind. if we didn't do definitely what from home, because a they were able to possibly agree 12 and the i, if they meet the minimum requirements to enter the institution, how are they going to survive? so now we've addressed some of the problems. so what needs to happen because of the solutions now, i come from it kindly to which is the largest township. yeah. in cape town and that's, that's, i spent all my life avoid in that community for the past 15 years, particularly working with people who are living and then for my supplements to try find the solutions with people live, met us. and we are seeing the best solution that could be put in place. it's one that doesn't need real good science, or at least public land, nothing. private land. there's public lands. yeah. in the email, which must be released for affordable housing to accommodate the way because of this city as well as the students office, the 2. okay. and finally, the 1st thing that the national government can start doing when it comes to housing is the stop cutting the budgets to municipalities. every single, yes. not. i mean, they've got the budget for housing that got the budget for education,

financial aid, you guys in the rental hospitals. we know they gonna fix it today. is it okay? sounds good, dave barbie. consultation, really we talking about the best things you that'll be talking about today. all of those has happened, in fact, when it comes to connecting people from different parts of the city. if the work oppertunity there is one solution and immediate solution that can be solved if you, you really want to peach the gap between at each end important good. all right. i asked a very simple question at the beginning, tape tongue is undoubtedly the best of many things, but best for who, let's be honest and say we are not the best. well, that'll be a trying to be this. the government needs to get any of your needs. analysis of the community allow the communities voice to be heard, but not just the hud live shy and involved communities like, i'll solve. like many of the people we part of it to she's making close is i think once we start doing that, we can make some movement. oh, i love that and that's a fantastic place to rock this debate. we did ask best for who apparently not for

everyone, that the of the apartheid, the color of your scheme who you are and where you were born still seem to matter, but hopefully based on the solutions, not so much longer. thank you all for watching by the the situation of inequality in cape town is very, very complex and in money 1st a many different ways. so i'll highly recommend you watch a longer version of this to beat. to get a full of picture. you can find this and many others on a youtube channel. what we have just seen is what isolated are on the continents. they are a lot of countries that have money to and extreme poverty. but it's cool in, well, it's not a uniform, a search for 150000000 africans. i still live in extreme poverty. the club 19 pundum makes us well also russia, ukraine war have made it much west for those who are struggling. and you can see

this despite the clearly here the lagos nigeria, the well sounds who may go ask because of the big s c c. 90. we forgot to hardware. just anyone come make is here. that's why thousands of young people on my website in here from west africa on around 9 here, we are with the dream. so he says we resolved. i'm exploring populations, unimpressed between economy, both as the economy booms, folsom, the gap between the rich and the poor gets right to this is michael. cool. probably the biggest fluting sloane in the world. about 250000 people leave here only goes to that. there is limited access to sunny patient services, electricity schools, or even clean water. i'm just looking at this one time around does not work. he

has a very strong smell of us, need to be sold decades of law to shut down just in a few minutes that we've been here since you leave the water. okay. and the show me the was born and raised in michael. cool. he has agreed to show us around he's cool . this is actually uh let me slip with my sister. busy i suspect is back it is, this is where we pick up, but this is here. this is the gag we use for what time to take or what i say and is coming from would be the latest by monday. but every, every monday it is from $9.00 to $11.00 to there would be also the all one is good, one might be successful. so that'd be 60 percent of the legal oceans leave in slums

and supports our communities. many in foremost sacraments, also risk demolition as the goes means expands the city. but just a 15 minutes drive from michael who seats lagos island most niger and celebrities, and 1000000000 is called the school for the vast majority of young tonight. jerry and since leaving here is that both as only imagine people are searching this great . yes. that doesn't stop the sky. hi puppets. the prices as these agents do. monro ok shows us around one of his new barely finished buildings despite nigeria appreciates him car seat. high inflation must pull betsy literally. of course, the manuel cleans he's never shots of bias. the house cost you from like a $100000.00 down to $2000000.00 on the,

on the island. while the reach leave sheltered lives on legals island, insulated by the mansions and wells communities like michael just about to kick you a heads above water. what, how long this dynamic will last is anyone's guess. on our facebook page, we asked you the young people, what can be done to reduce any quality in africa? and you responded. eric b the he says that our leaders must put the citizens fast for some african countries. the loss exist, however, it is a feeling to carry out due to the what says it's very simple. in my opinion, the solution to all kinds of inequality is gender equality. obviously women care more about societies welfare, which means the more driven invite to policy issues, which leads me to think the more capable to optimize resources for us to benefit

equally. and paul says it's information. most often times lock information, nothing else. information books as self education are free, just download it would be to on the internet. thanks for all of your comments. so far on the show we have talked about it cannot make any quality. but let's sift attention to another kind of inequality that exist right on the feet in narrow b par on the bi whose top to do with poolside mutation, the luck of recreational facilities in green spaces. this means that children do not get the best out of the environment. is this gonna affect you up to 4 months of school, but not if still on facebook back on help it. the king, an artist, is determined to give tutoring from all backgrounds equal access to a clean dissent environment. my name is van or daniel, but i'm famously known as stone faced mobile and i to used uh you might,

i defend on and i'm a, i'm a day of residence, missouri is one of now it will be sold as in for most settlements, but it is a far cry from the green city and the sun as matter would be likely to call itself for stone. faced the mother, he's home and a place he calls the concrete jungle. you can see that on my body. there's no single tree. in fact, it's either in the morning, but the sign is binding. they've been design this month that it are like a place like you should just the vice, you know, but that the side of that, of and it will be people living. and they know just leaving the living in a dignified life to come to this stone face and other community members drive planting trees in missouri. but creating change here comes with the challenges a few months back slots, devastated the area killing residents and tearing neighborhoods down of the time stone phase. and his real artist had started designing an open jungle room to teach

kids about nature and the environment. but that too was destroyed this time by government but those as. ready for now, is open jungle has found its place at the studio of the title is to add collective which stone phase is a part of respective fronting display one week. second week, you know, all of a sudden call from the came and got that a like. why are you guys printing treat? you know, what were you guys doing doing today? we have planting trees, full funded, do they use our initiative to see communities creating so no one is funding us away from suspicious eyes. stone faces plans of god. in spite of an aggravation by title is secure, they want to show that despite is within the city, but also play with the idea of utopia. i don't want to highlight some on humans that communities have created around town. this is our utopia, a map of my career utopia is that we have identified around

a ruby. the idea is to encourage people to go visit these different locations and to interact with the community organizations that we work with there. while student faces jungle room is on hold, the kyra's for to a team, take some of virus, change the environment, and list on regular trips to one of know these in the city parks. here they spend time in nature do out or learn about signs and opportunities and many kids from the area don't often have today. they generating electricity from soil and water. so quote awesome battery image on me. i have loved in so much that i couldn't even teach other kids, so it's cool. they will learn some of these things at school. i see them, but i don't know how the work is been, but then i learned is here. i enjoyed because it mostly connecting with donetta and interacting lakes. the way i'm heading, the buds for storing phase and the cairo secure team. seeing the kids to become

familiar with a new surroundings is one of the best spots. was there is no quick fix tonight are basic logical divide student phase and he's fail artist hope to bridge the gap for these kids. one day could be future change mesa's exact community assigned to sign a stone phase. we about to wrap up the show, but before we go, i like to share uninspiring story with you qualify. i mean, it was born in kind of a city in northern lights area. in this community of my coffin, bella, there are many visually impaired people. the community used to benefit from vocational training programs provided by the government. but these programs have since ended. they've been the visually impaired people defend for themselves. this dave collie file idea. let's take a look at what he did next. for many visually impaired people in nigeria. life can be tough. there is little government support to help them get by of the vent big

for arms, often with the help of young children. 17 year old kelly, i mean, was a guide for several years for the visually impaired people. and so 1st time the challenges they faced, that is what inspired him to create this mobility tube. them a call, we're not even making it to you when someone or some kind of purchase a visually impaired person descends us will detect the movements. uh, then job title, the biggest thing is activate the alarm system to genuine blinking light and so on . for all this to become aware you may hang. this is how the blind can enjoy safely . navigation by that to piece that is a warning to change cost the gloss as utilize in for red waves to scan for obstacles and to let the use it to alter that course. and importantly, the load others that the where a cannot see will easy to my car. so say for the help us a lot and nobody lives because it is not easy. having someone around all of these

to guide us with, especially in this economic hardship transport. but this prototype only has a range of up to 2 meters. this need to adjust the distance that was the sense of the dixon object to have enough space for the direction is that the smart glosses have of the potential to improve the lives of the visually impaired in this community and beyond. and that's what keeps kelly if i mean you inspired. yeah, it is hop woman to see that in spite of the minimum all equipment, he asked create of something that helps. and that is the message of today's show. any quality is a major problem on the continent. yes. but we've also met young people who in the own ways of talking that problem. and i hope the doctor has inspired you. that's it for this week. if you like, vishal, right to us on social media at 77 percent on youtube, instagram and took talk. i live you in the company of me. i love be and thinking molly, the call this truck peace and love and joy and until next time. thanks for watching
