Thomas W E Budge’s story isn’t just one of personal triumph; it’s a powerful exposé of harmful religious doctrines and a source of encouragement for those marginalised and victimised for their differences.
Unlike typical South African podcasts, Stripped breaks new ground as the country’s first feature-length audio drama. Produced by Baird Media, it tells the true story of Thomas’ courageous defiance against apartheid military conscription in 1971. Raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, Thomas stood firm in his religious beliefs, leading to his imprisonment in solitary confinement.
This audio drama is a tribute to his resilience and a reminder of the personal sacrifices made in the fight for freedom. Visit https://startlivingmy.life/stripped to listen now.
