Cape Town
Lindsay Johns concludes his series of essays on cities influenced by African migration in Cape Town.
Writer and broadcaster Lindsay Johns ends his series of essays on cities influenced by African migration in Cape Town.
Making his way around a city he knows intimately, respects abundantly and loves profusely, Lindsay asks what it means to be Capetonian. From the city's tragic racial history and its legacy, to the wave of migration from elsewhere in Africa, this is a place whose identity is constantly shifting. And as he concludes his series of essays, Lindsay ponders his own ambivalent feelings towards this demographic, political, social, spiritual change.
