The Poetry Pulpit - Beautifully Broken by @TshabalalaXabiso
While I, Kay-Dee, applaud Xabiso and admire her for healing and turning her lessons into medicine for other women to heal, I really wish it wasn't necessary. I wish women were no longer prey. I wish women were safe in society... But until that day, we shall "Pray for men" and trust God to heal our land. Enjoy this double episode and be sure to join us on Wednesday at 6pm live on Instagram @TshabalalaXabiso and @KayDee_Mashile.
