On this episode of "Into the Unknown" What if a century-old photograph could rewrite your family history? In this deeply personal episode, host Jeremy Swick speaks with South African actor Lungi Pinda about an extraordinary digital discovery: a picture of Lungi’s great-grandfather, Livingstone Mzimba, an African theology student and American football player at Lincoln University in the early 1900s. Their transcontinental connection began with a LinkedIn post and unfolded into a journey of reconnection, ancestry, and untold legacy.
From suppressed stories under apartheid to generational shifts in purpose—from medicine to the arts—Lungi’s reflections reveal the soul-deep importance of knowing where we come from. You’ll walk away seeing heritage, history, and identity in a completely new light.
