Special Report Transcript Episode 29, Section 4, Time 28:15

Bringing back the name Sophiatown might well restore some of the dignity that was stripped away in the past. But it was more than dignity that was lost; it was a way of life. // It was a fluent kind of living, vibrant community and I think longing for the kind of freedom that hopefully we’re getting into now, that’s what made it such a magical place and I think it will always hold a place in the imaginations of people that lived through it and maybe those who didn’t. As we can say it is an original.

Notes: Historical photos; Joe Louw; Footage: 1950s party
