Tanveer and Johan have a very special guest: the founder of Johan’s old employer Natural Justice - Dr Kabir Bavikatte. Kabir unpacks his theories of biocultural rights - an interesting, original and different conceptualisation of property. Kabir reflects on multiple relationships that one might have to property and the land, and how this should affect how we view property rights. He notes law's trend towards recognising relationships that communities have with their land - including in cases such as Maledu and Baleni - and argues that we can all learn from this.…

Johan and Elisha are joined by our friend, Kevin Minofu, for a discussion focusing on South Africa's (black African) immigrant communities and the legal forms xenophobia takes. Kevin describes a number of policy proposals which formed part of an emergent current of political xenophobia... and the shadowy network of online trolls and sponsored campaigns supporting it. We trade Twitter war-stories and vow to post another day. The team then has an in-depth discussion of the hearing and previews judgment in Residents of Industry House v Minister of Police, a case where the Court considers the rights of the SAPS to cordon off certain blocks of the inner city to conduct warrantless searches and otherwise harass communities the City of Johannesburg has decided to 'clean up'. Many are calling it the most important case of 2020. Judgment is expected soon. Tune in to Just Us Under a Tree. Mix and master generously donated by our friends at Kuyasha Media.…

Dan, Johan and Elisha are once again joined by Mbekezeli Benjamin of Judges Matter. https://www.judgesmatter.co.za/ We begin with a deep dive into the current make-up of the Court… who is on the bench, outstanding vacancies, and how we expect them to be filled. Mbekezeli helps us think about Acting Justices, the DCJ’s state capture commission and developments in the complaints against judges Hlophe, Parker, and Makhubele. How should judicial discipline work? In further news, Elisha outlines recent triumphs of democracy in Malawi and threats to democracy in the United States. Then, an argument preview: Dan covers an interesting lease dispute between the University of Johannesburg and Auckland Park Theological Seminary. Finally, two of the messiest areas in our law: Johan recaps Sithole, where the court again confronts the apartheid-era marriage system. Dan then recaps the 7-hour Qwelane argument, on how to deal with homophobic hate-speech. Final mix and master and outro by Daniel Basckin.

Elisha, Johan and Dan are joined by Mbekezeli Benjamin of Judges Matter to update you on judicial governance under lockdown, including the relationship between the Office of the Chief Justice and the Department of Justice. We bring to your attention the Chief Justice’s special Easter service: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCvGzvH5zhQ. We then focus on the role of law in the Covid lockdown. Dan covers the appointment of former ConCourt Justice Kate O’Regan as COVID-19 designate judge to oversee the government’s information-gathering for a contact-tracing database. We then provide an overview of some of the legal challenges to the state’s lockdown measures. These include the threatened challenge to the liquor ban, Afriforum and Solidarity’s challenge of affirmative action provisions on the tourism fund, lawyers having trouble with permits to travel and appear in court, a challenge to the closure of mosques without exception, the sale of baby clothes, the regulation of police and military misconduct, and Durban and Cape Town’s efforts to demolish informal settlements. Bhavna Ramji of the Casual Workers Advice Office makes an appearance to explain their successful effort to compel employers to apply to the Disaster Fund set up to supplement the government’s Unemployment Insurance Fund on behalf of their employees. Mbekezeli then helps us all unpack the many controversies and conflicts in the governance of Western Cape High Court since Deputy Judge President Goliath filed a JSC complaint against Judge President John Hlophe. We also unpack a shadowy paragraph of DJP Goliath’s complaint and questions it raises about judicial appointments and transformation. We end by briefly discussing Justice Edwin Cameron’s appointment as Chief Judge of the Judicial Inspectorate for Correctional Services and why this is so important in the era of Covid-19. Edwin Cameron’s fight for humane prisons: https://www.newframe.com/edwin-camerons-fight-for-humane-prisons/. Final mix and master by Daniel Basckin.
