Throughout South Africa's history, young people have played a pivotal role in the country's struggle for democracy. In 1976, young students in Soweto and other parts of the country stood up and challenged the apartheid state's policies. Hundreds died and thousands fled the country. This period saw young people fighting for the liberation of a free South Africa.
In the 1980s, a movement was born that reflected the harsh and violent realities of ghetto youths in South Africa. Pioneering this movement were groups like Prophets of the City and Black Noise who used Hip Hop as a rebellion against the oppressive apartheid regime.
Produced and Directed by Kurt Orderson & Sharmin Mackay.
