Professor Loren Landau (African Centre for Migration & Society, Wits University) joined Politically Aweh to unpack the drivers of xenophobic mobilisation.
His key insight:
“Of course there are immigration and asylum laws that need to be enforced. Is the problem that they [migrants] are selling tomatoes? … Operation Dudula stopping immigrants from accessing places of healthcare are breaking Constitutional Law.”
The conversation cuts through the rhetoric to ask: what is really driving the blame, and who benefits?
