Episode 21,   Jun 27, 2018, 09:06 AM

My guest this week is Siya Jentile the founder and CEO of Not in my Name SA. Siya formed the organization with a group of friends about a year ago in response to the murder of Karabo Mokoena . On May 3, 2018 Sandile Mantsoe was sentenced to more than 30 years imprisonment for killing her.

The organization has since expanded its remit from gender based violence activism to a broader social justice and civil rights organization.

Siya is member of the National inter-sectoral committee on domestic violence and femicide. He was recently selected to be one of the 200 delegates attending the inaugural Obama Foundation Africa Leadership Program, 2018.
