About Me:
It's also a university channel, coming from the oldest journalism school in South Africa. So it's TV that's content dense, that's more than bubblegum and deals in the currency of ideas. We combine issues in a single video that's outside the genre box - arts through a human rights lens, science in service of democracy.
The channel presents stories about Africans for Africans, coming out of a small rural town in South Africa's poorest province, the Eastern Cape. The Rhodes motto says that this is the place where leaders learn. Through our students' work you can see on this channel, we provide leadership that will help people imagine what TV could be without the pressures of commercial and political bullying. It's the kind of TV some people don't want you to watch - but now you can - on Youtube.
