Sun City

This is the video that some of my second year groups watched in class. Sun City used to be in what South Africa called Bophuthatswana, one of the so-called "black homelands" or "bantustans" where all Black Africans were supposed to be relocated under the apartheid government. It was, and is, a beautiful resort located near Johannesburg. In this video from 1985, artists from many English-speaking countries make a public commitment not to play concerts at the resort. Do you recognize any of them?

What do you think of the way pictures of the resort are mixed in together with video of the problems of South Africa?

By the way, Sun City survived apartheid and now is a popular resort - for people of ALL races.
