Langa, Cape Town South Africa

Langa is a township in Cape Town, South Africa. Its name in Xhosa means "sun". The township was initially built in phases before being formally opened in 1927. It was developed as a result of South Africa's 1923 Urban Areas Act (more commonly known as the "pass laws"), which was designed to force Africans to move from their homes into segregated locations. Similar to Nyanga, Langa is one of the many areas in South Africa that were designated for Black Africans before the apartheid era. It is the oldest of such suburbs in Cape Town and was the location of much resistance to apartheid. #Langa #township #capetown For more information: 00:00 iKhaya Le Langa Hub   / ikhayalelanga   01:51 Ubizo Tours https://ubizo-sa.co.za/ 02:26 Vezi Mntungwa https://linktr.ee/Vezi_za 04:55 Langa Heritage / Dompas Museum https://goo.gl/maps/f6KBeZWw3tLQqEsk6 07:49 Miriam Makeba - Click Song (Qongqothwane)    • Miriam Makeba - Click Song (Qongqothwane) ...   Fixer: I AM CAPE TOWN https://iamcapetown.co.za/
