In this episode of Pan African Half Hour, Jay Adewole, President of the African Coalition for Development, joins his colleague and Vice President for a timely and necessary conversation on the recent xenophobic attacks in South Africa.

Together, they explore what these attacks mean for African unity, why no African should be treated as a foreigner on African soil, and how colonial borders, economic pressure, misinformation, and weak continental cooperation continue to divide Africans from one another.

The episode also reflects on the historic support many African nations gave South Africa during the anti-apartheid struggle and asks a difficult question: How did a continent that once stood together for freedom arrive at a place where Africans are attacking Africans?

This is a call for truth, accountability, leadership, and a renewed Pan-African vision for the future.
