A global awareness campaign called “One Billion Rising” used the day of love and romance to protest sexual violence against women and children through dance and street action. Ten girls from the Ons Plek project in Cape Town, turned up the volume on the campaign theme song and danced to say NO to rape and sexual violence against women and children.

A group of young reporters from Manenberg took to the streets of Cape Town’s inner city for a very special tour. They explored the too often forgotten history of slavery and how it shaped the city and the identity of its residents, past and present. Their guides, Lucy Campbell and Ferdi James Van Tura, brought to life the stories of suffering, resilience and hope of the slaves of the Cape.
The tour started at the auction block, the very spot where slaves were sold and through a role play, Ferdi gave the young reporters a taste of what it must have felt like to go through this traumatic process.

The documentary “Afrikaaps” was screened at a community centre in Manenberg, Cape Town. The film looks at the history behind the unique way Afrikaans is spoken in Cape Town.The room was packed with dozens of excited young people. They laughed, they were puzzled, they cheered and it would seem, they were somehow transformed. After the movie, CRF young reporters and the members of the film crew, director Dylan Valley, hip-hop artist Quintin ‘Jitsvinger’ Goliath and poet Jethro Louw got talking. What follows is a dialogue about language, identity, diversity, and pride.
