Edward van den Berg is a self-appointed visionary. After receiving a “commission from God", he established the Immanuel Theology Institute International. Inspired by the parable of Moses, and offering certificates, diplomas and degrees, the so-called Doctor, Professor, Chancellor and Archbishop of his own multicampus online university insists he’s leading his followers to the Promised Land. Trouble is, his institution isn’t government accredited. So the self-proclaimed disciple of the “Most High” established his own accreditation bodies to certify his courses. Carte Blanche investigates the “General” of God’s bogus university. Your favourite episodes are now available on Carte Blanche: The Podcast: https://bit.ly/PodcastCB

Home is Where the Start Is

Once homeless, Carlos Mesquita speaks about losing his music business and career when he fell into drug abuse and how he has come to set up his non-profit, The Rehoming Collective. Fuelled by a deep understanding of what it means to be homeless and how the situation can be remedied, Mesquita highlights that the barriers to re-entry into society can be impenetrable when, for example, one is unable to get a permit to trade without an address. In an extended interview, Mesquita says that if you give people who have been struggling for such a long period agency, they will trust you and will not disappoint you. #CarteBlanche

The man behind the marimba

A celebration of South African traditional music and a giant of the genre: Dizu Plaatjies became famous as the founder of the 1980s band Amampondo when it toured the world during apartheid, bringing indigenous sounds and African music and melodies to European audiences. Now 63, the son of a Pondoland sangoma is performing his third act of life as a teacher and maker of indigenous instruments. Carte Blanche honours the keeper of ancient music as a Professor at the University of Cape Town where he manages a course in traditional musical performance, passing on the gift of playing to young, urban women.
