Johannesburg

In Johannesburg we meet the inspiring young chatshow host with a vision, cut diamonds worth thousands of dollars and enter the building designed to transform Soweto's future.

In one day in this complex city we meet the inspiring young chatshow host with a vision; cut diamonds worth thousands of dollars; and enter the building designed to transform Soweto's future.
