“Marxism & Period Pains is a bold and pedagogical exploration of the intersections between class, labour, and gender. By making visible the connections between physical pain and structural oppression, the film invites dialogue and empathy,”

Sixteen years ago, I was having lunch in Bedfordview with two friends.
In the middle of that meal, I asked a simple question:
“Why do we have to drive this far just to enjoy a proper meal?”
At the time, I owned a small two-bedroom house in Daveyton.
And in that moment, something shifted.
Instead of complaining about the distance…
I decided to change the location of opportunity.
I went back home.
Demolished the two-bedroom house.
And built what would become Brima Café — an elegant restaurant in the heart of Daveyton.
Not because it was easy.
But because our community deserved quality.
Our people deserved experience.
And our township deserved excellence.
Brima Café was never just a restaurant.
It was a statement.
A statement that you don’t have to leave your community to enjoy beauty.
You can build it where you are.
From a question over lunch…
to a landmark in Daveyton.

Somewhere in 2018, a story took me to Nyaka in Bizana, EC.
I met a charismatic little girl named Limnandi Makhedama, who lived close to where we were crossing live.
She had pleaded with her dad to bring her to us so she could say hello.
So, we spent some time with her, explained our work and took a few pictures.
Limnandi was 6 then, full of talent and promise.
I received a message today saying she is participating in the Miss Teen Universe SA, a testament to the confidence and intelligence she so clearly displayed back then.
Her dad says she joined a modelling academy two years ago.
I wish Limnandi all the best in this competition, and all she sets out to achieve in the future.
Let’s show her some support - she’s on Instagram and Facebook. I’m certain she will be unstoppable.
