Kliptown

The Joburg Photowalkers went back into Soweto. This time with the Kliptown Youth Project. Kliptown is the place where the Freedom Charter was written and is all touristy. Nearby is a informal settlement near the Kliptown Station which is rife with unemployment as high as 85%. In the middle of this settlement is the Roman Catholic Youth Centre which houses the Kliptown Youth Project or Programme. I am simply floored by the joyous dancing and singing in midst of such poverty.
