Prepare to be uplifted by this interview with Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh, a fresh voice whose direct questioning and articulate commentary consistently ruffles the feathers of SA’s rich and powerful. An Oxford doctorate, award-winning book author, activist, rapper, university lecturer, potential soccer star, now trainee lawyer - creator of the mushrooming new media platform SMWX is clearly living a full life. His secret sauce? Healthy scepticism, a quality in short supply right now as a suddenly adoring media fuels the euphoria of a GNU honeymoon. Mpofu-Walsh spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

Dr Sizwe is a highly intelligent and inspirational individual. He is my number one 'go to' for current politics in SA. Thank you for interviewing him!

Shout out to Sizwe for appearing on a “right” channel. I’m very glad for his voice I’ve learned a lot about the views of the left “from the horses mouth” on his channel. He is in a unique space to help bridge the gap between the siloed “black” and “white” narratives to get to more realistic and truthful solutions. But it will take courage and strong leadership to not play in only one bubble and create a new better space.

This guy has a pleasant demeanor and an incisive style but is a major EFF and MK fan.

he is quite correct - the ANC may have lost the elections but they won the negotiations.

Eventhough I believe Dr Sizwe is biased in the analyses on his channel, this convo is a breath of fresh air: 2 people don't have to be on the same side of the political spectrum to have a meaningful conversation. The programmes on his channel I like the most are where he interviews a guest and gives the person due respect to reveal themselvea without it sounding like an interrogation. I do get worried where he does analysis since many times to me it seems too clouded by a left-leaning bias even when the facts show the opposite of his views.

The PHD syndrome on most of the comments is astounding. So what if he is pro MK or EFF? Still doesn't take away his and his family's achievements to get him where he is at such a young age. He is truly an inspiration for most young people struggling to make sense of the two-faced world they live in

Alex thanks for interviewing DR Walsh. As young as he is he is so intelligent and neutral in all his analysis. I hope he eventually gets involved in politics and take our country to new heights of success. He has the power.

Not super sure what I think about Sizwe (there's a lot of baggage associated with the name), but I appreciate BizNews having him on. It means I get more of an insight into how he thinks.
