When you do it, do it with passion like Oppie Yaart!

Every day at Bush Radio we offer a platform for people to talk about the issues and challenges that affect them. Encouraging active citizenship and changing how the Cape Flats is portrayed, how we see ourselves, each other and our land. This is our little way of recognising the strength, resilience and beauty we possess.

We don’t consider ourselves experts on any particular subject, but we provide a space (through 89.5 FM, online and social media) where people can help change their communities.

Our communities know the challenges that face them, and in most cases those very communities have innovative solutions to these challenges.

To quote Bob Marley – “None but ourselves can free our minds” and in line with the Bush Radio philosophy – “Don’t curse the darkness, light a candle” – we want to highlight the work of Oppie Yaart, and invite you to listen to an interview that inspired us this week.
