Philip James is 42 years, radio host for the one and only independent radio station in Southern Sudan. He owes his place in the South Sudanese society to an educational institution that is funded by ICCO / KiA. He is a journalist fighting for freedom of expression and is proud of his South Sudanese identity, but he fears for the future of the country, not only because of the external threat from North Sudan but mainly by internal threats of corruption, tribalism, intolerance and illiteracy. He fights for his country with nothing more and nothing less than a microphone with which he travels daily through the ether of South Sudan, seeking solidarity, honesty and freedom of expression.
