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.

Rathebe. The film star Dolly Rathebe took over her friend's name for the fun of it. And at school Dolly was a tomboy. (But she loved boys!). She looked at life from a male point of view and seemed to have quarrel with her Maker for creating her a female. She discovered that she had a fairly good voice, mellow and husky and she toyed with the idea of 'African Jazz', the Street. She started perfoming in school troups, but the sedate, well organised music of school choirs did not quite go with her. She wanted the pounding rythm that intepreted township life so well. Later, she was to thrill mourners at the wakes of dead friends with her singing. So in 1943, with Standard F

Description: . SAED:SPORTS:BOXING:PERSONALITY:DRUM.MAY.1956 Ð ÒKangarooÓ Maoto has been a fighter all his life! Ð ThereÕs nothing like GodÕs good water! ÒKangaroo gives his kid sister, who looks herself like a baby Kangie, a ducking in the tub. Eating Avocado pears helped him build up weight. He was a thug, tough, reckless, until his mother got the brain-wave to encourage him to take up boxing and sweat off his energy there. ÒI grew up in a rough and tough area in Alexandra township Ðthe Dark city. Tiny in body as I was, I just had to force myself rough and tough too. What could I do? I had to grow up, hadnÕt I?

Description: DM2011053116:SAED:POLITICS:GCP APR 7 1961 -Warmbaths Strikes - Warmbaths came to the boil for three days municipal cops and advisory board men slept in bushes in fear of their lives. Business came to a standstill in this dusty platteland town. And men fell to police bullets. And all over one man Martinus Wessel Van Coller. Warmbath’s labour force, 5000 strong from Bela-Bela township went on strike over the reappointment of Van Coller as a Manager of Non-European Affairs. More than 40 people have been arrested following the Sunday stampede. And all over Van Coller. The entire township was non-torn on Sunday afternoon as young men went from house to house, street by street, chanting Van Coller must go, we don’t want him here. Several people who didn’t join the marchers were beaten up. (Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA) warmbaths strikes, bela bela, children

Nelson Ottah was the editor of Drum until February 1967 when he got the fever and joined the exodus of Ibos to the Eastern Region. For over two years he was in the thick of it all, as a functionary in Ojukwu's propaganda directorate. He was part of it. He saw the early fever, the epidemic nature of it. He saw the waste of life, the starvation, the frustration, the hopelessness of a shattered illusion. . (Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA)
