[@donaldmacdonald9993]

Thanks AT for showing the other side of life in cape town. South Africa is a work in progress. In 27 years SA has achieved a lot but more still needs to be done. The part you were in is an informal settlement not a township which is just 15% of SA. Townships are formal settlements with brick and mortar houses, street addresses, and so on. In some countries SA townships would be lower middle class areas or upper working areas, depending of course where you are in the world. Most people who live in informal settlements are migrants from outside our borders and Sans from rural areas searching for employment. The government has built 4 million houses for poorest of the poor for which the recipients did not pay a cent. This has drastically reduced informal settlement to just 15%. The government is continuing to build free houses for the poorest of the poor, but increasing influx of migrants from the rest of the continent is complicating the formalization of settlements because some of the migrants are demanding all the privileges that are reserved for Sans and taking the government court demanding the same privileges as citizens. That being said, informal settlements in SA enjoy amenities such as tared roads, access to electricity, access to clean drinking water, free clinics, employment, sport facilities, free schooling. Clean drinking water is not even enjoyed by the rich in many African countries and access to good health care is a privilege in many African countries. Those people may be poor today but in few years they will climb the social 🪜. That is why those people do not dream of going anywhere but to work hard to change their fortunes. Again that is why many Africans would rather stay in informal settlements in SA than stay in precarious situation in their countries. As for xenophobia I think your visit to our country has opened your eyes about the Sans. Which side of the fence you choose aftet this exposure is up to you. We are still an enigma in Africa, no one cares to understand us but quick to misinterpret and condemn. We will never beg to be accepted but we ll continue to live our lives.

[@cohenc]

Only just come across this eye opener. Wonderful and inspiring people. I am a white westerner living in the UK. One of many thing this brings home is a sense of the scale of migration to SA from other African countries. I was aware of several million Zimbabweans but had little sense of the numbers of 'economic' migrants absorbed by SA. It put's to shame the current furore in the UK over a relatively small number of migrants attempting to enter the UK by perilous crossings of the Channel or any other means. We visited Cape Town in 2019 and did a tour of Khayelitsha led by Uthando. I like to think the visit was educational, and not voyeuristic of patronising. Conditions in Khayelitsha seemed on a level above Masiphumelele. Leads to the question what is the difference between an informal settlement and a township? I guess a township is recognised by public authorities so in theory it has access to public resources - water, electricity, sewage, etc. For a week we stayed in the western comfort of Nordhoek - it's hard to believe Masiphumelele was less than 10k away showing the stark contrasts and gaping inequality of SA. That conditions might be so much better than the slums of origin of many of the migrants does of course not excuse the situation, I realise now I cycled alone on the main road past Masiphumelele, If I am honest I recall being nervous at the time but must say I faced no hostility at all. I hope I can make this journey again and passing solid buildings that the community deserves. PS I have subscribed to AT and look forward to the journey

African Tigress 💪🏻, you are one of a kind..showcasing our beautiful motherland Africa..

[@sylviamaua745]

@AFRICAN TIGRESS thanks so much for showing this. It is nice to see such good community spirit. When images of Black Townships in SA are shown they are always very negative focusing on crime and xenophobia - what you show here is the hospitality of the local SAns living alongside other Africans despite what little they have.

Thanks for sharing what life is like in the township.🌷

Visit Hanover Park,Steenberg,Lavender hill,Elsies River,Langa and Gugulethu as well Masiphumelele is very new and with mixture of people from different places and countries but there are native Cape Townians from the places i mentioned above.

[@AFRICANTIGRESS]

Went to Gugulethu and filmed a little but we had to stop was told it's not safe

[@realsebsworld3004]

@@AFRICANTIGRESS You should get someone who lives there and know the place and people as well.

@@AFRICANTIGRESS I am glad you placed your safety first ☺️

[@pontshosepoloane3241]

I am happy you tried to go to Gugulethu my dear.

[@siminxab8214]

@@AFRICANTIGRESS l think you also noticed if Masiphumelele was safe you wouldn't need 5 or 6 more people to escort you. This include seeing tuckshops with security bars because of criminals who steal and attack them. The guy from Ghana even said it.

[@afro5380]

what a warm feel all round. They gave you a royal welcome.

[@andrewngumunyu3730]

I see a lot of vitriol in the comments. I noticed some non South Africans are gleeful at the fact that such a rich country like South Africa has slums and South Africans are claiming it is majority foreigners (from Africa) who live in those slums. We need to stop this internecine wars. As an African I know for sure that people who live in slums have rural homes whether South African or foreigner. What we need to do is push our respective governments to lift the rural economies so that people will not have to flock in cities looking for meager jobs and end up living in squalor.

[@tloutlou2655]

Even USA have slums

[@smizijoy4529]

then you will be destroying food security becuz cities most are built on the least fertile soil

[@africanadage852]

@andrew ngumunyu. 100%🎯. Couldn't agree more. The rural/urban migration has to be dealt with. Some decent jobs and other opportunities need to keep rural communities positively engaged.

[@kennethwoodside6132]

Fascinating .I worked in S Africa during Apartheid (the BAD OLD DAYS) and i visited 2010 Capetown - amazing changes.The biggest problem is of course crime/safety,but,with the Attitude of you guys in this video you will win through.Bless you all.

[@pixiemasauso1370]

South Africa, the US of Africa! Thank you SA we know you are facing problems of your own but most of you are still welcoming

[@ismaelmatthews8801]

I use to stay there 12 years ago i almost didn't go for 10 years i miss there

[@jenniferbrown7659]

Interesting place with beautiful looking people. You are correct, love is the foundation. One answer is the children. Teach them writing stories, exercise, chess, creative skills and they'll be leaders...The mountain looks so majestic. I love this video. 🌞 🌎 🌙

Peace,peace peace.Shalom.Thank you brother for taking care of the kids🙏🏽

[@blackrhythmrecords8691]

Woow i like your video sisi keep on doing good work

[@BuhlebzNetwork]

This is what I want people to also know about us we still have a long walk to freedom South Africa has different faces we are not only cities but we also have rural areas where there is zero discrimination or xenophobia

[@ValentineUgochukwu]

Can't advise my worst enemy to visit SA. Aside the tremendous crime rate, poverty inequality, SA is the world's capital of HIV and AIDS You black SA are the only slaves remaining on earth

[@colindoman6954]

Really Luv it .... Great stuff the lord will bless you for the awesome work you do in the community

Love you too

[@kaydenpat]

Another great video. That Zim young man spoke the truth about African unity. It’s a must!

[@realsebsworld3004]

We must unite in Zimbabwe or Kenya good idea.

[@tloutlou2655]

We must unite in Rwanda.

[@chaniawillow]

Great video. Such a warm community!

[@Limani87]

Even after watching the video some people are still missing the point! Why can't you just see how united and happy most of these people are?

[@starksshotz8526]

exactly

[@dokotelam7207]

honestly speaking, To have large number of poor people from all over African countries is not good for many poor south African, that's the reason you end up having so called ' xenophobia' because those poor south African end up fighting for same resources with another poor person from another African country, someone can say " live together ,you're African " , what about Biafra citizens live in Biafra and south African live in south Africa, if Zimbabwean build Zimbabwe there will never be a need for Zimbabwean to travel to SA...even in issue of crimes, several weeks ago, Zimbabwean guy arrested for killing about 7 south African women, how should south African respond when crime is exported from another country ?, if crime is committed by south African then you can say" is south African problem " , another guy speak about united Africa and another guy from Nigeria see himself as Biafra not as Nigerian

[@walkwithorr]

Some are really here pushing crime. Last year 4 people from Zim mind you 2 were women were arrested in Musina carrying bowbs. They were going to blow an ATM.

[@priscillamatika3668]

Crime knows no nationality you must know that.

[@bobthebuilder4692]

Thank you we are being taken for a poes

[@spicefix_cooking]

You said mouthfull most African countries are poor ,South Africa ain't rich either but it just better that is one thing other African countries don't understand they think SA is rich

[@thembamabuya2795]

I think the starting point to unite is to refrain from calling each other "foreigners"

[@africanadage852]

@Themba Mabuya. True talk. We are brothers and sisters first.

[@georgepresley5120]

Then have one currency and no visa requirement for visiting each other
