The story of Wilhelm Verwoerd, grandson of the assassinated architect of Apartheid Hendrik Verwoerd

Today on the show we will be playing an interview feature on Wilhelm Verwoerd, grandson of the assassinated architect of Apartheid Hendrik Verwoerd. 

Wilhelm opens up about his personal life story and joining the ANC. He also speaks on the rainbow nation, meeting Nelson Mandela and, of course, his newest book: "My journey through family betrayels".

In these new writings, he tries to find further reconcilation with black South Africans but also with his own long lost family. For more background on the story listen to Sakhisizwe - Building The Nation - Bou Die Nasie from 12-2pm!
