Tounkan namo in Guinea: Living abroad

Cry Like a Boy

Many African migrants who take the dangerous journey into Europe will not make it. The few who reach their destinations still face hurdles like filling out the right documentation, meeting new friends, or trying to find a job. The tasks become even more difficult as they are Black.

In this episode, Khopotso Bodibe talks to South African lawyer and rights activist Sharon Ekambaram and Julie Kleinman, an American anthropologist and author of the book “Adventure Capital: Migration and the Making of an African Hub in Paris”.

This show has been produced with Khopotso Bodibe in Johannesburg, South Africa.
