A visitor to District six

What a wonderfully blessed way to spend my day at district six .
Me personally had no clue what that place was about but im so grateful to be one of the students to take part in this program.

INFORMATION WE’VE AS S.A STUDENTS GATHERED CONCERNING DISTRICT SIX
On 11 February 1966 it was declared a white area under the GROUP AREAS of 1950 ,and by 1982,the life of the community was over.More than 60 000 people were forcibly removed to barren outlying areas aptly known as the Cape Flats, and their houses in District Six were flattened by bulldozers.
And in 1970 the government changed the area’s name to Zonnebloem, which means “sunflower”. The Cape Peninsula University of Technology was built on a part of District Six. The rest of the area remained empty.Its a lovey experience and id love for you to go and check it out
