the african national congress has been in power for 30 years,. and they came with those promises of addressing poverty and inequality. apartheid ended 30 years ago. >> apartheid ended in 1994 technically speaking. but you will see that special apartheid is alive and well. privatization of housing, health care. education, infrastructure access. the inability to undo the structural inequality that was put in place by apartheid rests firmly in the hands of government. society. they also have a responsibility to push, monitor and ensure changes that are necessary to restore human dignity of the people who are now booting in the malls, the shops and warehouses. this is still a work in progress. the sense of isolation is what has led to the deprivation. this is not an excuse for criminality, but if we take a criminal militarized police approach to this issue, we fail to understand the underlying social and economic drivers and traumatic dimensions of what is causing the uprising we see at the moment. that would be an incomplete analysis and the to an i

they are members of the african national congress who support him. and of course, people in candler with, from who say that this is the people's president, they say their father won't be sent to jail. they say that they'll be here to protect him. no matter what it takes, the military veterans of the doing of the african national congress and menu i suppose, would argue just how relevant they might be able to be coming out here. they say, to protect the president, they say they'll do whatever is necessary. there was to take a step back and be some days to say, well within the bounds of the law. so it is difficult to see what might happen in the coming days. we do know that top leadership from the african national congress is at his residence to meet him. we haven't had confirmation that he is in fact, yet in canada because we know he's also been in the meeting with his lawyers. but we've seen this push from the a and see to talk to him, perhaps compel him, turned himself over because they all concerns around tensions. and what people might do to prote

>> what we have seen from africa's democratic regime is the governing national congress has gradually been losing support. the this political fragmentation is also then combined with long-term economic inequality in south africa. 27 years of democracy has really failed to address it. we see the continuation of apartheid labels. africa remains one of the most unequal societies in the world and the pandemic has fully served to entrench that. brent: we appreciate your time and insights tonight. thank you. let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. joe biden says there is a national imperative to pass sweeping voting rights legislation despite republican opposition. several republican controlled states have approved laws that impose strict -- this refutes donald trump's false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him with election fraud. the exiled rights group in cuba says as many as 150 pple have be detained. thousands have been taking to the streets. italy has banned cruise ships from using the venice lagoon in order to protect ecosystem a

we've seen also the people who are members of the african national congress. we've also seen, i'm opposed to all of you know why we as of from the say we come out to protect the former president. so here comes the president, the former president as well liked and supported people have said that they both accept his race, but generally across of africa that has been mixed reaction. if it's very important for me to feel that because that the constitutional court, that the court in general be respected. and there was a lot of criticism around the form of presidents action, his behavior in not cooperating. they're also people that say that this is a long time coming in that the former president is also child of corruption separately from the corruption inquiry. he's facing a separate trial. he's due to return to court, also in the middle. well, thereabouts of july. that trial began about a month ago. so this, this isn't the end of the road in terms of the legal difficulties that the whole, the president is facing. south africans, on whatever side of the line they

has been succeeded by a member of his own party, the african national congress, given serial rama posts as background as an anti apartheid activist. you wouldn't really linked the changes in power with race and plus, the former leader has been embroiled and corruption control overseas for almost 2 decades now. but the mere fact that jacob zoom out, spent years behind the same bars as nelson mandela, and that he's being jailed is an enormous trigger for the poor and his home province and elsewhere. when you start, if you pose the love, it isn't so much then the people on the street and that demonstrates the foundation is seeing the end of the wooden case, then it away again, it's probably south africa is appalling past. that's adding fuel to the fire and intensifying the anger and divisions, speaking of extra fuel to the fire, think of what kind of message this video posted by jacob's whom his daughter would send to the st. opponents of the leadership which took over a video of shots being fired at the face of president rama post. now, unfortunately for the government, there are other mo

well, our government's weakening the environmental protection, the maximum, the can also the national congress, but i'm optimistic because many people here i've trying to face the agenda. are thinking about a more positive agenda. so. ok. yeah. both that, okay, and the final word to you crystal raymond's are you optimistic or pessimistic? given the state of the the world doesn't stand. yeah. you know, in my 20 year career, working on climate change, i've always been optimistic, extreme events we've seen in the last year to have definitely started the challenge that but i have very young children. so i feel like i have no choice but to be optimistic because i want to make sure that this world is isn't a good place for them when they're older. cable will finish not optimistic and uplifting. thank you very much. kristen. ravens like these and doors. and christie and the i'm thank you for watching at home. you can see this program again, any time by visiting our website al jazeera dot com and for further discussion just had. so facebook page is facebook dot com, forward slash ha inside story. you

the what we've seen as increasing political and social fragmentation, the governing african national congress has gradually be partly released to issues of corruption from which the former president is implicated. and i'm to that kind of political fragmentation. declining support for the e n. d is also combined with long term economic inequality in africa, which 27 years of democracy has really feels to a trace, we release the venue ition of apartheid levels or inequality. and unfortunately, some african remain, want to move on equal society in the world and depends a mac has only served to entrench the yes, professor karen, rosie me, director of the center of social change in the university of johannesburg. professor, we appreciate your time and your valuable insights tonight. thank you. thank you. well, let's take a look now with some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world in cuba. dozens of people have been arrested after some of the biggest anti government demonstrations in decades. exiled rights group. google x says as many of the 150 people have been detained, t

time but, but, but in a nutshell, i mean the actual divide is with a ruling party, the african national congress, a party of nelson mandela, which is very topic because yesterday was international mandela day. once again, it's, he's party that appears to be what appears is divided and as a result of these party being divided with the encumbered president and the full of president and all supporters between the 2 and the ruling party, then as an inability to lead effectively this has been going on for over a decade and that played out with the rest of the former president, put the russian, but in fact will contend to court. the collection case is still going to be heard right and protest against him being arrested. the 1st president arrested in a democratic south africa and the protest and spoke of interest. something else now read it is whether people opportunistic because of a poverty stricken. and it took advantage of the situation, or whether the site could, i don't really know the president of the country upfront, saying that there was a clear attempt was he call it in. so actually it was pl

people supporting jacob zoom military veterans of the african national congress. the jacob zoom of foundation is saying the exact opposite that the court is not been independent, that it's biased. and this is really about a political campaign against the form of president we are outside his homestead in northern quizlet natal. i think candler, and we understand that the former president hasn't been here for the last couple of days. but reports indicate that he's due to return to an candler perhaps sometime today where he could possibly speak to the people who may gather at the moment. it is very quiet and very uncertain what might happen in the next couple of days. he has until sunday to hand himself over to police. and if he doesn't do that, then and warrant of arrest will be issued. and then police have about 3 days after that to arrest the former president. it's not clear from his camp with a he is planning to hand himself over within that timeline. there's been a number of messages. his daughter on twitter has said that the president is, has always been willin

and so the african national congress, the part to he belongs to the governing party. and so that's because also issued a statement saying those kind of scenes was unacceptable, especially during a level for locked out in south africa where we are not supposed to have gatherings of a large amount of people know gatherings a tool in fact. so they are a couple of issues at play in terms of the response by his supporters and how far they might take those threats of war and violence. that is a concern. and we know it's one that's faced by the police as well as the government. and at the same time, balancing that with respecting the rule of law and whatever the courts outcomes might be. ok for me to measure their life. or as i said, that chords, thank you very much in feeds for the weather night. here's kara. hello there. let scott in central america and tropical storm ausa has worked its way north over cuba, its now headed for the us. we think flooding rains in southern florida as it makes its way to the keys where we are expecting the weather and windy weather. we could s
