In this episode we dive into the world of traditional healers, shining a light on the challenges they face in both everyday life and broader society. The episode is split into two segments. The first, Myths & Misunderstandings of Traditional Healers, features Thobeka Khuzwayo’s complex package and unpacks the stereotypes, misconceptions, and cultural narratives that surround traditional healing practices. The second segment, Tension of Religion, brings in Aphilile Dolwana and Yibanathi Labi’s complex package to examine the clash and coexistence between traditional healing and modern religious beliefs. Through candid conversations with our guests, we explore how tradition and modernity intersect, and how communities navigate these complex dynamics.
Key themes include the challenges faced by traditional healers today, the gap between misconceptions and reality, the interplay of religion, faith, and traditional practices, and the ongoing struggle for cultural preservation amid societal pressures.
