KwaZakhele - life in a Township is a uniquely intriguing, high quality, large format, hardcover coffee table book that accompanies the reader into the lives and onto the streets of a place that was built by the Apartheid government of South Africa to be hidden from the rest of the world.
This book shares various stories and aspects about life in this township. Providing a background for the personal stories shared by township residents and beneficiaries of the Ubomi Obutsha Centre, the original inspiration for this book, the historical context of events, intentions and settlement are elaborated on by historian and writer Dean Allen.
Mxolisi Dolla Sapeta, a local artist, has contributed moving reflections on growing up and the general lived experience in the township space. This, accompanied by descriptive maps and contextual 'explainers' by Mark Lawler, the director of the Ubomi Obutsha Centre, visually appealing photography and even a few recipes, creates a book that delivers to the reader an enriching picture of this community where happiness, love and faith coexist with the hardships of daily living in a South African township.
The purpose of this book is two-fold:
-
To be a voice carrying beyond it's isolating borders the many difficult but often inspiring, and sometimes humorous, stories of the people of KwaZakhele
-
To be utilised as a tool to raise awareness and much needed financial support for the continuing work of the Ubomi Obutsha Centre among the many families broken over generations by life in a South African Township
As a collaborative work between the Ubomi Obutsha Centre and our partners in the Netherlands (SUON), KwaZakhele - life in a Township is an insightfully educational, and personally accessible book produced with international readership and quality standards in mind.
You can receive your own complimentary copy of KwaZakhele - life in a Township … along with an S18A Tax Deductible Certificate Receipt (South African tax payers only) when you support the Ubomi Obutsha Centre financially, either through our Sustainability Fund or with a minimum Once-Off Donation.
