  • Summary

  • It’s been 30 years since apartheid fell, but elite swimming in South Africa remains the realm of the white and rich, while the majority Black population faces drownings and water shortages. From the beaches to the pools, Patrick and Lesley explore how inequality and the legacy of apartheid has kept so many Black South Africans from the water, and they meet the Black swimmers (and a mermaid!) working to change this today.

Incredibly gut wrenching story

I meant to listen to one episode but was completely riveted by the story, next thing I knew I had binged all of the episodes. Definitely a must listen.

Must listen for all

It was moving, infuriating, and made me very reflective of how accessible sports have been for me and how grateful I am for those opportunities. Thanks for sharing this work. It was well written and edited for accessible listening. I hope to hear more stories like this.

Powerful, eye opening story

Through stories, we can learn and grow, and this podcast did just that. Highly recommended to everyone! We can do better. We must do better. And listening to this story, and others like it, is just the beginning.
