Christians are being killed, kidnapped, displaced and pressured to abandon their faith across parts of Africa. So why does Bafana Modise argue that the world is barely talking about it?
From northern Nigeria and Boko Haram to Mozambique, the DRC and Burkina Faso, this report confronts the rise of Islamist extremist violence and the devastating impact it is having on Christian communities.
Bafana also raises a far more uncomfortable question for South Africans: could the ideological forces driving religious persecution elsewhere on the continent eventually become a threat closer to home?
The discussion examines reports of killings, sexual violence, slavery, forced conversion and displacement, while challenging churches, political leaders and the media to speak more forcefully about the persecution of Christians across Africa.
