    Title: Washing and lines
    Image Number: APN111694

    Path: african.pictures / Shuter & Shooter Publishers / Izak de Vries
    Description: The bright white washing was difficult to photograph and I was relieved when my compromise light meter found one setting that showed it off against the stark lines of the township around it. The dollops of red, yellow in green gives the picture life. These shacks were about to be demolished when I took these pictures. In their place the government has built two-story apartment blocks. These shacks have developed because of years of influx control under apartheid. In the homelands, or Bantustans, there were not enough jobs and not enough land. People had to move to the city. Today township dwellers are a powerful lobby group and our government is providing electricity and other services.

    Description: This spaza owner has grown rich and affluent. He has advertised his prominent position in the township and has grown more successful as a result. This is a wonderful example of the two economies in South Africa. Here in the township, where the poor live, we also see an upper-class shack dweller developing. These shacks were about to demolished when I took these pictures. In their place the government has built two-storey apartment blocks. (At least one person will feel at home on the top storey!) These shacks have sprung up because of years of influx control under apartheid. In the homelands, or Bantustans, there were not enough jobs and not enough land. People had to move to the city. Today township dwellers are a powerful lobby group and our government is providing electricity and other services to them.

    Description: Look at the ingenuity with which these shacks have been built. The human spirit and mind is just great. Even in the face of poverty, caused by apartheid and unequal opportunities, these guys have used wood, plastic and old tins to create these interesting bits of technology. These shacks have developed because of years of influx control under apartheid. In the homelands, or Bantustans, there were not enough jobs and not enough land. People had to move to the city. Today township dwellers are a powerful lobby group and our government is providing electricity and other services.

    Title: Shanty Town in Kempton Park

    Media Id: 87_234
    Path: african.pictures / The Media Bank / Izak de Vries
    Description: These shacks are in Kempton Park, Gauteng. The history of the squatter movement in Gauteng is well-documented. In the homelands, or Bantustans, there were not enough jobs and not enough land. People had to move to the city. During the period around the Second World War, the black urban population of South Africa nearly doubled. Huge areas of informal settlement grew around Johannesburg and, to a lesser extent, other major cities. One of the most famous leaders in the Squatter Movement, was James Mpanza. In defiance of the laws forcing Black people out of "white" areas, Mpanza and other leaders urged their followers to set up informal settlements. They provided hessian for shanties, employed a camp police force, controlled trading rights and charged the inhabitants levies to pay for services. The government could no longer deny the need for black settlements and eventually the central government and the Johannesburg City Council began setting up emergency camps. Today township dwellers

    Path: african.pictures / Independent Photographers / George Philipas
    Description: A road has been planned through Kibera to link to major arteries in and out of Nairobi. Many houses would have to be cleared to facilitate the building of the road. Ironically, most of the houses that were to be cleared were decent stone house structures which are rare in the sea of temporary corrugated-iron constructions that is Kibera.Kibera, at the very heart of Nairobi City, is the second largest slum in Africa, second only to Soweto in South Africa. It is made up of 11 so-called villages or districts and is about 1 million strong. The slum makes up about a quarter of Nairobi's population and sits uncomfortably next to the Nairobi business sprawl on the edge of the CBD. It was the centre of a lot of the violence that inflicted Kenya following the disputed election results in December 2007, when the predominantly Luo population in the slum, who are ardent supporters of the then Opposition Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), were a big source of the mayhem that the elections inst
