Street Khoisan: On belonging, recognition and survival
Keywords:
Khoisan, Indigenous Studies, Cape Flats, South Africa, urbanisation, Nation-building, marginalisationSynopsis
This book focuses on how the Khoisan have survived, despite colonisation, assimilation and acculturation. Self-naming has produced resilience here, as in other places where indigenous identities have been muted. While focusing on the Khoisan, this book includes a juxtaposition of Khoisan experiences and glimpses of the indigenous Coastal Sami's history from the author's home ground in Norway. Clearly, indigenous people continue to survive, as they have done for centuries.
