“I think the fact that I’m not a lawyer makes me a far better legal journalist, because I’m trying to understand things, explain them to ordinary people in a language that they can understand.” – Karyn Maughan. Disarmingly honest and deeply personal, ‘I Will Not Be Silenced’ takes a razor-sharp look at how powerful men use attacks on individuals who try to hold them accountable, as well as on the media and the courts, to undermine democracy. In this discussion with Adriaan Basson, Karyn expands on her experience as a legal journalist who reported on Jacob Zuma’s legal woes for two decades, and in the process became one of his targets. This discussion was recorded on 13 November 2024 at Exclusive Books V&A Waterfront.
