Cape Town part 4

One of our days in Cape Town was a brief education about the role of the city in the struggle to end apartheid.  During a Township tour, we toured Langa, Guguletu and Bonteheuwel, three areas that saw much violence in the 1980's and '90's .  Although some progress has been made to improve living conditions in those areas, there is much work to be done.

And then there was District 6.

 statute of Nelson Mandela outside the prison he left as a free man, Drakenstein Correctional Centre, in 1990
