Linda Rauch, granddaughter of one of the National Party's longest-serving ministers, reflects on growing up under apartheid in the inherited comfort and silence of white privilege, and how she arrived at a deeper understanding of responsibility, justice and repair. She discusses her difficult childhood, working in the townships of Cape Town, her career within the machinery of government, and her reckoning with what it means to be white, Afrikaans, and free in a country still carrying the weight of its past.

Lidia Rauch is the founder of Bloom, a social enterprise committed to building an inclusive South African society through promoting sustainable social and behavioural change. She lives in Cape Town.
