“I

wouldratherwalkthe streetsofCrossroads nakedthanseeing this groupdying down,” this is howLoyisoCasiwesummed up hisloveand passion for ImbumbaCross Dancers, oneofmanygroupsthatwill take part in this year’s Cape Town Carnival on Saturday 21 March.

Over 1500 performers will showcase theirtalentunder the theme“FollowYourHeART”on theGreen PointFan Walk in an explosionofcolourand entertainment during the16thedition of the carnival

Casiwe,one of theleaddancers at theannual carnival,endured many yearsofheartache and hatred before hiselevation to the topofthisyearlyspectacle.And he attributes hisresilienceand rise to hisformerteacher andmentor Nolufefe Racula

The22-year-old joined agroup of youngdancers whilehewas a learneratQingqaMntwana Primary School at OldCrossroads under theguidanceofRaculawho honed hisdance movesand skills

Littledid he know that this would draw theire of certaincommunity members.

“Peoplehated me andI waseven calleda ‘moffie’,” he tells People’s Post

Thesedid notdeter hisfocus as he tirelesslystrived to be thebest at dancing.

Todayheisthe beacon of hope to many youngpeopleinhis community.“Noweveryoneloves me Most people want to be part of the group,”hesays, explaining that he workswith60young people between theagesof11and 18.The dancersare nowpreparing for this year’s festival on Saturday 21 March.

“Weencourage thechildren, especially theboys, to remain hum-

bleand be confident in themselves

Forinstance, at my ageI stillwash dishes at home andmostofthem thinkI am lyingwhenI tell them that.Crime will always be there, butthere is certainlychangeinour community”explainsCasiwewho shares ahouse with hismother, grandmotherand five siblings “There is also unityamong allour membersand youcan seethatthey choosetheir friendscarefully.”

Despitehis resilience and fighting spirit,challenges remain Casiwe says whiletheir focusis always on theCapeTownCarnival, they also performatcommunity events.“Most of thechildrendo nothavemeans to buyclothes for ourperformancesand Ihaveto buyfor them from thelittlemoney Imakefrommypart-time jobs

“Lastyear, IboughtthemT-shirts to participateinlocal events,” he says,expressing gratitudetothe carnival organisers forsupporting thegroup annually to participatein theevent

“Theysupport us with theclothes andthatiswhere we gettosee people from othernations,” he explains butcalls for“supporters” to ensure thegroup continuesits work in society.

Explaining themotivebehindthe group, Racula tells People’s Post that shegrewupina family that lovedmusic.She also pays homage to hermotherwho instructed her to remain loyaltoall thechildren.

“I lovedsinging from ayoung age andI wasinspiredbymymother whowas amusic conductor. Before shedied(in 2009), sheinstructed me to take care of thechildrenand help them in music,”she says Racula hasbeen part of theCape Town Carnival sinceinception and haswitnessedits evolutionover theyears.“Ioncedancedwith them,but my attire wasdifferent anda bitlonger,”she says Shepraises thegroup fortransformingchildreninCrossroads “I always availmyclass to the

Inoticed somethingthatstayed with me.Inmanyhomes and streets, people wouldkeep quietat thefaceofinjustice or quietlyshare theirthoughts, theirfrustrations, theirhopes,but ofteninhushed tones.

They spokecarefully,sometimes as if testingwhether it wassafeto be heard. Ithenrealisedpeopleare notsilentbecause they do notcare. They areoften silent because, over generations, they have been taught that theirvoicesdonot matter. Taught to doubttheir worth, to normalisebeing ignored, to survive quietly. Butinsomespaces, I’ve seen somethingdifferent, somethingquietly revolutionary, people speaking up,insisting to be seen,to be heard, to matter.

In Zwelethemba, Imet agrandmother tendinga community garden.Her handsweredarkened by soil andsunlight, hervoice soft but firm.She told me shestarted thegardenfor thechildrenasa safe placetoplay, to learn, to feel proudoftheir surroundings.Itwas notonthe news.Itdid notgoviral Yetwatchingthe children harvest vegetables,their laughter spilling over thefencesand into thestreets, Ifeltthe powerofsmall victories.

By theend of theafternoon,a street that hadfeltforgottennow looked aliveagain.Care, it seems, is contagious.

They arevictories of everyday life.Theydonot make headlines.

They do not fill news reels. But they remind us that healingbegins when we speak, when we act, when we notice each other.

Gangviolenceonthe Cape Flatscontinues to wreakhavoc on communities,leaving atrail of blood in its wake.

PresidentCyril Ramaphosaannouncedover theweekendthatmorethan26peoplewere murdered in variousparts of thecity.

The figuresinclude eightpeopleshotdeadin ashebeen in an extortionrelated shootingin Marikana,Philippi on Saturday 17 January.

Thepresident condemnedthe violence on the Cape Flatsand said communities canexpect “strongerlaw enforcementand increasedpolice visibility”tostabilise affectedcommunities and reduce theriskfor more violence

People’s Post spoketoDrGuy Lamb,director of theConflictPeacebuilding andRiskUnitin theDepartmentofPolitical ScienceatStellenbosch University,togaininsight into the escalating violence Lamb argues that socio-economicchallenges, includingunemployment, poverty, andschool dropouts,leave youngmen susceptibletogang involvement.

“A lotofthe issues is aboutthe highlevelsof inequality,lackofmeaningful employment for youngmen in poorer areas, untilweare able to solvethatproblem andaddressthatinequality Idon’t thinkweare goingtodomuchonthe gang violence issue.”

Lamb says extortioneconomies,suchasthose linked to shebeens, significantly contribute to violence in communities He believes theCovid-19lockdowntriggered a

wave of extortionascriminals sought alternative ways to generate income

“Partofthe problemwithextortion at the moment is that there’slotsofdifferentplayers within thesector. Andtheycompete with each othertoextortmoney from businesses, early childhood developmentcentres,hawkers,traderswithintownships andthe informal sector aretargeted.

Lamb adds that criminalsuse violence to intimidate victimsintopaying, whilealsodemonstrating that they aremorepowerfulthanrival extortiongroups.

“Violenceisa lotlower when thereisa dominantgroup that’s engaging in theextortion andinthatway thedominantgroup provides a degree of protection.”

Lamb says theWestern Cape government has adoptedone of themostprogressive approaches to gang andinterpersonal violence throughits safety plan,which aims to improvecoordination across departments, butits abilitytoaddress immediateviolenceremains limited.

He adds that whilenationalcrime andviolencepreventionstrategiesexist,theyare under-resourcedand poorly coordinated, resulting in an over-relianceonpolicingratherthan addressing theroot causes of violence

Lamb identifies access to firearms as akey driver of violence

“A lotofgangs have access to firearms more than previous years. It createsa massive demand formoreguns. Theonlyway to compete with othergangs is if youhaveguns. This is drivingtheftsand robberies relatedtothose whopossess firearms.”

Lamb says theviolencecausesserious harm to communities “Thisistraumatisingfor communities it has an effectparticularlyonchildrenbecause they areexperiencingand witnessing trauma daily. It also restrictstheir movements. It createsfear, tensionand trauma.Thisalsoleads to more youngmen joininggangs to protecttheir family andcommunity.”

Anroux Marais,the WesternCapeMinisterof Police Oversightand Community Safety,said in apress statementcommunities arelivingin constant fear as criminals“runrampant”.

“The police must urgently resource allpriority precinctsand fill vacanciessothatall serious

crimes aresolvedand thoseresponsible are prosecuted,” shesaid.
