  • World renowned and yet not known by so many South Africans. Ignorant on their part? I would venture to say 'yes'.

    Many fear it and millions live in it.

    The bad history and riotist past has been sensationalised and the good people and community and ongoing development is underplayed.

    A place filled with culture, history, intrigue, sorrow, blood and tears, love and care.

    A fundamental part of the heritage of South Africa!

     Hi Jenni Wonderfully moving page on Soweto- Madiba would be proud. Excellent recollections and photos. Maybe you could write a tip about the amazing music that originates from here!
