Skeem Saam’s plot has and will continue to divide audiences. SABC 1’s award-winning soap opera. This daytime drama has been making great strides in enlightening viewers about a variety of important issues. Among the many influential educational programs airing in the country, it is among the most watched. At the conclusion of each story, the world receives a vital message.
Because of this, it keeps gaining new followers. Writers continue to receive accolades for their efforts. But this time, viewers aren’t happy and threaten to stop watching the soap drama. Recent viewer complaints have focused on Samukele Mkhize’s portrayal of Khwezi. People have said for a long time that they no longer want her, yet Skeem Saam keeps bringing her back. Since it has been shown by others that she is not skilled with acting, many viewers have decided to stop watching the show.
Skeem Saam showcasing how subtle racism can be towards black creatives, and how easy white people steal and exploit black people. You can be BESTIES FROM BIRTH with your white friend, but when they want to sideline you, NOTHING will stop them #skeemsaam

Mapitsi Magogwa, portrayed by Mogau Motlhatswi, Katlego, by Patrick Seleka, and Candice, portrayed by Lisa Van Deventer, have all received criticism for their plots. A lot of people have thought about their own lives and the world at large because of this plot. Katlego’s companion betrayed him because of their race, despite the fact that both Katlego and Mapitsi are black. Katlego put in a lot of effort to make sure that his book was successful, but the distributor made it clear from the beginning that he didn’t want anything to do with him because of his race.
Mapitsi, instead of battling and acting morally, betrayed him for financial gain. It has prompted introspection about how people are typically treated in settings as varied as jobs, classrooms, and social gatherings. It’s unacceptable that racism still affects some people. The story’s depiction of extreme prejudice has incited further outrage. Insights from this, we hope, will be taken by the public. Just what do you think about this situation?
