Tragically Devestatingly so Poignant, the hart of a citty that never should have suffered such ghostly affair!

Still happening today in another part of the world.

I remember Sacks Futuran. We bought all our clothes and shoes at that store. Beautiful memories of a lovely Jewish family who owned that store❤❤

You know his stil in cascade

Wow I am from the Cape and did not know about this. Fascinating. Thankyou ❤❤❤❤

Totally Kool Dude

Free Palestine you m$rderers

Bravo! Much appreciated by this former S African!

Thank you for making this available for all of those of us who are direct Cherniavsky Family descendants; specifically, of brothers, Jan & Michel Cherniavsky, brothers of Leo & Alex Cherniavsky, herein depicted by Mr. Michael Brittan of SA. There are many of us in Western Canada (and beyond), where grandfather Jan settled 100 years ago when he married into the Rogers Family of Vancouver. His younger brother by two years, Michel, is also well represented in Canada, having married Jan’s wife’s elder sister some three years earlier. Their clan also resides in the USA and Europe but none in SA (to my knowledge). As noted in your piece, the Cherniavsky Trio visited SA on numerous occasions in the early part of the 20th century, before WW1. In fact, I possess a highly prized (by me) solid gold pocket watch given to Jan in SA (& presumably to his two brothers also?), upon which is inscribed the words: “From SA Admirers, 1912.” (It still keeps excellent time.) Thank you for producing this excellent historical rendition of your wonderful country, where I have had the privilege to visit twice in 1989 & 2011. Yours gratefully, Sam Gudewill, Vancouver, Canada.

I'm an American living here in South Africa. I use to work at the National Archives in Pretoria and was recording all the many records there. I noticed many Jews had come from Lithuania and made a home here. I bought a book on the early Jews who came to South Africa and the wonderful difference they have made to the society here. I'm glad to have found this video. God bless you, your memories and community.

I just laugh at the people, in the comments, who do not know that there used to be Jews living in District 6. I saw in a book a picture of a synagogue. Some aunties recollecting their memories of how they used tease some Jewish shop owners/their wifes who can't speak English or Afrikaans properly. 🤣🤣🤣

The Jews of District 6 led a good life feeding off the locals. They were classified as whites and enjoyed all the white privileges. They could buy properties, and did so in any area of their choices. Jews owned most of the properties and rented it out to locals. Their only complain is that their businesses had to move.

South African accent sounds horrible.

Those ppl r not Jew stop lying.

Enjoyed this, and on a different note in UK if it wasn't for the Jews Hampstead, Golders Green, Hendon and Edgware would be another suburb, I thank you very much

And still hating black people all over the world

District 6 could've looked been much,much better than Dubai today if only ......... 😭😭😭😭 One day is one day our culturally split country shall prosper .Lord please come and clean our brains of all the wicked in it I beg🙏🏼

I had no idea there were Jews in the Cape.

Why jews leave South africa?? 😥😥😥

When I saw the demolitions I was like.... Why?.... Why?...... Now if you think of the Cape Flats and various townships where people were redistributed to, there is mostly devastation, fear, danger, crime and violent death, resulting in the incarceration of youth. 😔

As a jew I never knew about jews in District 6. G'day from Australia 🇦🇺 Shalom.

The caucasity of some of the comments is beyond belief. No whiteman was invited into south africa, canada or america by the native population.

As a son of immigrants I appreciate the sacrifices made by previous generations.Hope to live in harmony forever.

Thanks very interesting ,the buildings sadly looked like they needed to go.today we hear of old infrastructure collapsing on people.im sure theses types of things caused alot of trouble socially but sometimes it happens it's still happening today where forigeners and illigal immigrants live in old hostels which eventually become dangerous.Very interesting story.I personally do not see everything about seperate development as a bad thing ,as many local tribes and people did not loose thier culture and languages as fast as it's happening today.In a way it preserved some things for the future generations, the new government has not in my oppinon brought people together anymore than apartheid apparently divided us .I actually had better relationships with people from other cultural backgrounds during apartheid than I do today . I went to a Catholic school so "apartheid" never really effected me.I was raised by a Xhosa lady for the first years of my life.I personally have never felt apart from anyone.Sadly the new culture developing in South Africa is way to influenced by(English) American media .This now seems to me to be a type of colonial time more than anything historically.local trade and business and culture is being destroyed by consumer international culture.big business fast food and plastic from this .The little corner stores, pad stalls ,home made goods ,and crafts have drastically declined.Sundays are not quite anymore .

What was achieved???

Too bad the current South African government isn't trying to bring back or foster or push or encourage for multi-cultural and multi-ethnic communities to return or re-establish around the country. All the stories I hear of people who lived in district six are of non-racialism and living in peace with one another. Some political parties are just sowing division among South Africans :(

What amazing commitment Gary!

Thank you so much for this. I’m a Bass descendant (my mother’s family). My mother would have loved this. My grandfather lived in Cape Town when he was a child. He also was Ghandi’s office boy. He really loved it there.

Absolutely amazing.

poignant and so sad.

So, do these people get some kind of recompense?

So sad 😞

Beautiful and bitter sweet film - South Africa really is a melting pot of people and cultures to be celebrated!
