    Then and Now: Activism in Manenberg, 1980 to 2010 Julian A Jacobs (8805469) University of the Western Cape Supervisor: Prof Uma Dhupelia-Mesthrie Masters Research Essay in partial fulfillment of Masters of Arts Degree in History November 2010 DECLARATION I declare that „Then and Now: Activism in Manenberg, 1980 to 2010‟ is my own work and that all the sources I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references. …………………………………… Julian Anthony Jacobs i ABSTRACT This is a study of activists from Manenberg, a township on the Cape Flats, Cape Town, South Africa and how they went about bringing change. It seeks to answer the question, how has activism changed in post-apartheid Manenberg as compared to the 1980s? The study analysed the politics of resistance in Manenberg placing it within the over arching mass defiance campaign in Greater Cape Town at the time and comparing the strategies used to mobilize residents in Manenberg in the 1980s to strategies used in the period of the 2000s. The thesis also focused on several key figures in Manenberg with a view to understanding what local conditions inspired them to activism. The use of biographies brought about a synoptic view into activists lives, their living conditions, their experiences of the apartheid regime, their brutal experience of apartheid and their resistance and strength against a system that was prepared to keep people on the outside. This study found that local living conditions motivated activism and became grounds for mobilising residents to make Manenberg a site of resistance. It was easy to mobilise residents on issues around rent increases, lack of resources, infrastructure and proper housing.

  • The Profile of Disability Grant Applicants in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town
    Original Research: The profile of disability grant applicants in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town The profile of disability grant applicants in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town a Govender T, MBChB, MFamMed b Mji G, HED, BSc, MSc a Family physician, Private practice and former postgraduate student, Stellenbosch University, Division of Family Medicine b Centre for Rehabilitation Studies, Stellenbosch University Correspondence to: Dr T Govender, e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: disability grant applications; adults profile; Bishop Lavis; ICF Abstract Background: Disability grants in South Africa increased from 600 000 in 2000 to almost 1.3 million in 2004. This rise can be attributed to the HIV/ AIDS epidemic, South Africa’s high rate of unemployment and possibly an increased awareness of constitutional rights. The Western Cape, which has a disability prevalence of 3.8%, has also experienced an influx of applications. The study was conducted at Bishop Lavis Community Health Centre (BLCHC) in the Cape Town Metropole, Western Cape. The primary aim of this study was to establish the profile of adults applying for disability grants at Bishop Lavis. The secondary aim was the determination of the degree of activity limitation and participation restriction by means of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) shortlist of activity and participation domains. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted with emphasis on identifying and quantifying the relevant factors. The population studied included all prospective adult (18–59-year-old females and 18–64-year-old males) disability grant applicants in Bishop Lavis over a two-month period (April–May 2007). A structured, self-compiled questionnaire was administered during face-to-face interviews with applicants.

  • Fireworks, Yet Every Year, Countless Animals (And Humans) Are Left Injured and Traumatised by These So-Called “Festive Pleasures”
    Before you light that firecracker Every year, like clockwork, the SPCA movement campaigns against the use of fireworks, yet every year, countless animals (and humans) are left injured and traumatised by these so-called “festive pleasures”. The fireworks season is just around the corner, with the Hindu Festival of Lights, Diwali, on 23 October, Guy Fawkes on 5 November and New Years’ Eve ending the year on 31 December. So before you light that firecracker, please remember the dangers that fireworks pose to animals and humans alike – and respect the parameters set in place by our City’s law enforcement. It’s not difficult to imagine the pain. If a dog can hear a grasshopper eating – how much louder is it then for a dog to hear the incredible crack and bang of fireworks, blasting off in the neighbourhood, or worse his/her own home – one after another. The trauma is enough to send any pet running for safety. And this is exactly the behaviour that ends tragically for thousands of animals each year. “The SPCA is opposed to the use of any fireworks which emit a loud noise, due to the trauma and injuries they cause animals. Because animals are able to hear a wider range of sounds than humans can, the sound from fireworks is at least seven times louder to them and therefore their natural response would be to try and escape the sound with sometimes tragic consequences” , said CoGH SPCA Inspectorate Manager Moyo Ndukwana. The Animals Protection Act clearly states that “it is illegal for any person to terrify any animal” yet thousands of animals end up at the CoGH SPCA every year, lost and abandoned, disorientated and sometimes severely injured.

The examination will be conducted in English. Abstract Monaco, S. 2008. Neighbourhood Politics in Transition. Residents’ Associations and Local Government in Post-Apartheid Cape Town. Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. Skrifter utgivna av Statsvetenskapliga föreningen i Uppsala 168. 223 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 978-91-554-7084-5. This study focuses on the changing practices of South African residents’ associations and their relationship with political parties and local government from 1990 to 2006, with the aim to examine how associations in Cape Town respond when they are confronted with a new democratic institutional and political context. Two empirical questions guide the analysis: How do residents’ associations perceive that the changing political context has affected them in their attempts to influence agenda-setting and decision-making? And how can we understand the process in which they decide to act, or not act, in response to important changes in their political environment? Drawing on social movement theory, most importantly the notions of political opportunity structures and framing processes, an analysis is made of the most significant changes in Cape Town’s post-apartheid institutional and political context. The empirical findings – based on questionnaires, interviews and an in-depth study of the township of Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay – show that associations in socio-economically distinct areas have different perceptions of their prospects of affecting agenda-setting and decision-making.

  • St Thomas Rondebosch Celebrates Its 150Th Anniversary
    The official newsletter of the Diocese of Cape Town (Anglican Church of Southern Africa ACSA) St Thomas Rondebosch celebrates its 150th anniversary In October 1864 St Paul’s church Rondebosch asked Sophie Gray, wife of bishop Robert Gray, to lay the foundation stone of a tiny PAGE 3 Mission schoolroom / chapel in which the children of local farm la- From the bourers would be taught during the week with religious services con- Bishop’s Desk ducted on Sundays. It took nearly a year to complete and was for- mally opened by the bishop on 16th August 1865. It evolved, as the society and environment underwent major changes, into a church needing several enlargements over the years, and an independent parish. Last year, 150 years after the laying of the foundation stone, the parish began a series of events and strategies to celebrate this Sesquicentenary at a Thanksgiving Eucharist held on the Feast of St Thomas and presided over by the rector of the ‘mother’church – St PAGE 4 Paul’s. St Luke’s Salt River hosts Gabriel Faure’s Our 150th Anniversary committee initiated the design of a special Requiem mandala logo to commemorate this event and various capital works were begun including the sign-posting of St Thomas Lane and a ma- jor upgrade of roads pathways and accesses to buildings. They also organised a series of events, appealing to a wide range of ages and interests, giving the parishioners many opportunities to invite family and friends to join in the celebration. We have had Walk/Run for Fun events in Keurboom park; a Wine-Tasting evening at which the St Thomas 150th Anniversary wines were selected; a fun Quizz and PAGE 5 Supper Evening; an evening out at the Masque theatre; a women’s The people group Anniversary Tea; a glamorous Gala dinner; and a Spring Mar- gathered to pray at ket in October 2014 to be repeated on Friday evening 16th and Church of the Saturday 17th October 2015.
