Today, we received the honorable visit of Iliso Labantu (www.ilisolabantu.org), photographer's group founded by photographer Alistair Berg (UK and South Africa) along with Sue Johnson (USA).
Who have looked for postcards of townships already saw their work: the eye of the people. They show their photographic art through postcards as well. They sell them in galleries and bookshops in Cape Town. Profits from the sale of the postcard go directly to the photographer.

Iliso Labantu aims to train, promote and support township-based photographers in South Africa and to help them document their communities. The most of them live in the townships that surround the city bowl.
We invited Iliso Labantu to know Ukonwaba Photo Club. They went to visit us in this afternoon.
The great news is, maybe, one of them can join us next year and teach our teens!
Great, great news!
Long live the union of all townships!!
