Soweto Tour

On Sunday, June 13, we took a tour of Soweto Township, which although African sounding, is merely an abbreviation for Southwest Township. It is the black, and mostly poor community within Johannesburg that was created under the apartheid regime, and it is also the boyhood home to two Nobel Peace Prize winners, Bishop Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela.
