About South Africa
- Khayelitsha - the destination of the journey - is the largest of the Cape Town “townships” that were established during apartheid for the purpose of segregating the black population from the white.
- Apartheid’s effects are still being felt: 80 percent of the area’s people are “squatters,” living in self-made structures built from scraps of sheet iron and timber.
- South Africa is hosting the 2010 World Cup - an event that occurs during a “winter break” in the student’s schooling.
