"You'll find it's ignorance; it's people that don't know that this country could have burned..."

"We didn't fight, we didn't go through a war to get to this equality, this great country that we have now."

We have a talk with Mr. Tebogo Rakhongoana, who we also know as Mr. Most Read Up on our county's history, Mr. Financial and Economical News, Mr. Connect with anyone from any culture or religion, and Mr. Real Talk.  

He challenges what we think we know about our country's history, and illustrates how ignorance and one sided thinking impairs growth. 

"If we start to read more as people, all the answers are there. Every answer that you are looking for is out there."
