Download Why are millennials becoming traditional healers?

Traditional healers used to be community elders – not anymore. A new generation of young South Africans is embracing what they describe as their “ancestral calling”, and using social media to bring new life to ancient traditions. Who are they – and how does their country see them?

Hosted by Alan Kasujja (@Kasujja on Twitter)
Guests: Mpho Lakaje, reporter based in Johannesburg; Rutendo Ngara, cultural expert and academic; Thokozile Mntungwa, young traditional healer.
