“It becomes scary when you see people that would normally smile at you - and all of a sudden you see so many people on the streets making those kind of chants. And you think, 'wow, what has been going on underground? This is the city that I used to know. Why should I now be extra watchful? What exactly is going on?'” - Toyyib Adelodun, Nigerian migrant in the UK
The world watched in shock as police cars were destroyed and shops and properties belonging to foreign nationals targeted in the UK, earlier this month.
The riots were triggered by the killing of three girls at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event for children in Southport, northern England.
False rumours were spread on social media that the teenager charged with the murders was a Muslim migrant.
There were similar events in the township of Soweto in South Africa recently.
Shops belonging to African immigrants were forced to shut down, after a foreign national was accused of attacking a local resident.
Alan Kasujja attempts to find out if these are isolated incidents or if there is a political ideology driving them.
Guests: Professor Bongani Ngqulunga, Toyyib Adelodun and Wallace Musonda
