Scope and content

Moegamat Tape of Woodstock talks to Dan Ndzabela (82) of Gugulethu in front of their new homes in District Six. District Six was established in the 1800s as a mixed community of freed slaves. The apartheid government declared District Six a whites-only area, forcefully removing an estimated 4 000 families from their homes in 1967. By 1982, about 100 000 people had been relocated to the Cape Flats, their former homes flattened by bulldozers.
