Towards the end of my SPX commission, I had two days free so as part of my slums project I visited the Khayelitsha township around Cape Town. Two days only allows for a very limited view of the current conditions the majority live in but it is clear that the ANC still has a lot of work to do and the legacy of apartheid still persists.
