Cape Township Documentary

Roughly 30 years after abolishing Apartheid in South Africa. 60% of the country's population still lives in Townships. This documentary shines a light on three Townships in the Western Cape Province. The Interviewees tell their stories of non-existing work opportunities, racism, violence, and crime. But in one of these Ghettos, there is a development, that could overthrow the financial and social injustice.
Produced in 2022
Directed by: Sebastian Weiser

The wisdom from that kid at the end, bless him!

[@Daytona53]

That young man reminds me of me. The hardest part about his mindset will be finding like minded people who he can build a community with. All the best to him.

[@Nbilitane]

The last part 👏👏👏 I hope the young man grows to be someone better. The world needs more people like him✊

[@joe_lubinda]

a video about poverty in Cape Town but the cape coloureds aren't even mentioned at all.

[@makteko]

It seem everyone is ignoring the Cape Coloureds. And that is the sad part about this.

[@KhelleRadeberg]

It is another side, because majority of the documentaries are always about Cape Coloureds, so this one is a fresh look.

[@joe_lubinda]

@@KhelleRadeberg but those people are the majority in that place and poverty and crime affects some of them.

How the hell do you not have more subscribers? Hope to see more of your work! Cheers from Belgium

[@manny8042]

You just got yourself a subscriber. Man this was moving, I wish you could document more hoods around South Africa. It's not all doom and gloom, some are thriving in their respective right also. Keep up the great work!

Okay so townships has not been that long around in Cape Town unlike the cape flats where our homes were taken from us and we were all dumped in the ghettos, I wonder why there is no coloured people in this cape video.

[@andisilembolompo1958]

Coz coloureds enjoyed white benefits.

What did the colors build after 94? Land was given back the colords Why was nothing developed? I live in Cape town. Every one knows the history of apartheid. But like ww2 it's gone, in the past. Land is now yours, still nothing

[@ChildOfChrist84]

@@conradduplooy6570 lol Mr. Boer, keep quiet its because national government is the problem. And you probably from the western cape yes not the city of Cape Town, if you were you would not be so foolish. This is my home and I'm proudly Khoi, so if I may ask are you a Afrikaaner?

[@makteko]

Yes true, this is probably a post Apartheid township, but it all depends on how you define Cape Flats vs Townships. Maybe its based on racial lines with Cape Flats meaning coloured settlement while township means black settlement. Langa is older than most Cape Flats and then we have Nyanga and Gugulethu that we built around the same time as Lavender Hills, Heideveld, etc. So basically townships have been around since the 1920s but I can agree with you that there has been a large influx of migrants from the Eastern that created new places around the Cape. I fully agree with you, It is really sad that Cape Coloureds are being ignored while the Government has priorities new comers in the Cape.

22:40 This kid is smarter than 99% of eff supporters

[@masixolesizani2349]

There's no revenge it's addressing the injustices of the past caused by apartheid architectures.

[@makteko]

Yes EFF supporters are not that smart, but I don't understand your comparison with what the kid is saying. There are many past injustices that need to be addressed and it has nothing to do with revenge.

Nothing about South African Youths. Just Zimbabwean living in Cape Town and their challenges

[@shaunmpondwana9468]

This documentary is about Zimbabwean living in Cape Town township

[@MichaelJones-lh1ug]

We know whose fault it is that the townships exist but lets be honest - whose fault is it that they are still here?

[@makteko]

ANC is our biggest problem.

[@nadineblake6354]

@@makteko indiscriminate breeding is the other. Too many people...too little to go around. Whose fault is that?

[@makteko]

@@nadineblake6354 The problem is not too many people but rather the lack of development by the Government. Our population is slightly smaller than the UK and we have 5 times the land mass, most of our problems will be solved by good leadership. Right now we have an incompetent Government who is not dealing with the high unemployment rate or the development of the country.

[@nadineblake6354]

@@makteko should unemployed people have kids? Should people living with starvation ie, Ethiopia have kids and watch them die? Should teenagers below 16 be having babies?! Should men sleep around and have as many kids as they like, leaving the women to cope with no income and a bunch of illegitimate kids she can't feed let alone put through school?? Surely people should wake up and take responsibility for their actions and not blame the government or compare their situation to other people who have fewer children and a better lifestyle?? Is that damn rocket science??!!

[@makteko]

@@nadineblake6354 Lol, You must be really bored. And it would seems there is a lot you don't understand about socio demographic patterns. Also no one is comparing anything to anyone, but good questions though.

[@sick9990101]

i have been always staying in Khayelitsha for 20 years when I'm in Cape town yearly. I personally never experienced any problems there (I'm white and from europe). And yes yenophobia in africa is not about skin colour but about tribes.

[@nadineblake6354]

I'm getting really tired of this type of crap! Whose fault is it that they can't suppress their urge to breed like flies??!! They take zero responsibility for all the offspring they spawn, bug have the bloody cheek to feel sorry for themselves! Poor me... no job. No food...etc. I WONDER WHY??!!
