Discover how the squalor
and the deprivation of the townships of a previously
disadvantaged community is being transformed
and provided with modern schools, clinics,
electricity, clean water, liveable homes and
sport facilities.
Their struggle against apartheid and their endeavours
during these difficult years to uplift themselves
through the establishment of community centres
and informal trading initiatives like “spaza” shops
and “Shebeens”.
Get an idea of what is being done about HIV and
Aids through aids clinics, youth centres and counselling
programs.
On the motor way en route to Langa we pass the
well known historical site, District 6,
from which people were forcibly removed during
the Apartheid era.
LANGA TOWNSHIP (the
sun) Cape Town’s
oldest township established in 1927 where a local community guide takes you
on a walking tour of…
The infamous “singles quarters* and the hostels, – a
product of the Migrant Workers Laws of the previous regime which destroyed
families and created a dysfunctional society.
The “new flats” which are the old hostels now
converted into smart new family apartments. A chance for decent family living.
An informal settlement, derogatorily called a “squatter
camp” – residents awaiting a new home.
SETTLERS “The Beverly Hills” of Langa, built
for former civil servants as a smoke-screen to foreign visitors.
Arts, crafts and cultural centre where we may have the privilege
of observing a short production by the resident theatre group. Take time to
browse through the exhibits of the resident artists such as pottery, steel
works, framing and sand painting.
A community centre, craft market (shop for locally-made arts
and crafts which directly benefit the community), a tavern (shebeen), a pre-school
and a township restaurant where lunch is an option
Langa Taxi Rank – sequel to the Sharpville Massacres
of 21 March 1960, as a result of the defiance campaign over the pass laws,
led by P.A.C. leader Robert Sobukwe and local resistance leader, Phillip Kgosana.
