The State of South Africa
Away from parliament, how do South Africans feel about the state of their country?
Away from parliament, how do South Africans feel about the state of their country? Punches were thrown as opposition MPs tried to disrupt President Zuma's State of the Nation address. What does that say about South Africa today? We hear the reality of life for different people in different places.
We also talk about the case of Guadalupe Garcia de Rayos, a Mexican woman deported from the United States after 22 years living there. Her case has sparked protests in Phoenix, Arizona. We speak to others who have been deported - or fear they might be - as well as people who support the deportation of people in her position.
