In this episode, TK speaks to Justice Malala to unpack South Africa’s 2024 elections. They discuss the rise and fall of the ANC, the new normal of coalition politics, the juxtaposition of hope and fear in the current political climate, the lack of political violence during the elections, why the Government of National Unity may only be so in name, the capitalist undercurrents in the ANC, how Jacob Zuma will try to continue to cause havoc in SA politics, what the incoming administration needs to focus on, and more.
