In this episode, we explore the human cost of the Group Areas Act through the lens of District Six in Cape Town. Lucas and Luna discuss how the apartheid government used urban planning as a tool of racial segregation, forcibly removing over 60,000 residents from their homes between 1966 and 1982. We meet Jannie Marais, a resident who fought the evictions, and trace the bureaucratic machinery behind the 'Cape Flats Purge.' The conversation also touches on the cultural loss of a vibrant, multi-ethnic community and the long road to reconciliation that continues today.
