About this listen

Born in the dust of Pella, Reginald Tshepo Pheqe grew up barefoot, chasing whirlwinds, drawing strength from a grandmother's stories, and measuring survival in buckets of rainwater. His childhood carried the weight of hunger, the silence of apartheid classrooms, and the unyielding hope of distant city lights.

Moving Up is not simply a memoir of hardship-it is a meditation on resilience, belonging, and the enduring dialogue between the boy he was and the man he became. With prose both tender and unflinching, Pheqe charts his passage from village paths to city streets, from silence to voice, from invisibility to recognition.

This is a story for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in their own life, and for those who believe that dignity is not granted, but earned.

Because in the end, Reginald Pheqe proves one timeless truth: you can take the boy out of the dust, but you cannot take the dust out of the man who rises.
