Eugene Terreblanche's funeral

The gate of AWB leader Eugene Terreblanche's farm where he was murdered in Ventersdorp. I covered the funeral of AWB leader Eugene Terreblanche a few days after he had been beaten to death on his farm in Ventersdorp. Ventersdorp is a strange place with echoes of the tune from "Deliverance" floating about. There is a definite divide between the white and the black folk, one that seems on the most part to be respected, from what I seen they work together when necessary and stay away from each other when not. It's not an ideal situation, but it seems somewhat peaceful... That was until two labourours killed Eugene Terreblanche and all the old AWB regalia was dusted off and brought out to stand pride of place again, to tell the truth, on the day I was somewhat worried about the potential, and had flash backs of various scenes from the news of long ago, but now I'm convinced that in general this country is way too smart to allow a criminal act and a few idiotic politicians to drag us back into the past.

Jub Jub Court protest

A young protester hurls a stone at the police water cannon after it sprayed a section of the crowd, (including me :) during a protest outside the Protea Magistrates Court in Soweto. The students are protesting over a case in which a local hip hop star, Jub Jub is being charged with murder after driving into and killing four students during a drag race and was found to be under the influence of cocaine and alcohol.

Parkour at Soccer City

Parkour is the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one's path by adapting one's movements to the environment.

Ivory Park protest

Another service delivery protest, same old, same old. When will these people demanding free houses, free electricity, free everything realise that the government doesn't care if they destroy their areas by burning tyres and and emptying rubbish all over the roads, the powers that be are too busy filling their own pockets with the money...I spoke to one young protester, who told me they wanted free houses, free electricity, free education, better roads etc. I asked him if they wanted jobs to be created, he didn't seem too keen about that.
