Ngo-1867, idolobha laseKapa laseNingizimu Afrika lahlukaniswa laba yizifunda eziyishumi nambili zomasipala. Kulezi zifunda, iSifunda Sithupha sasingenye yezindawo ezinemibala eningi kakhulu edolobheni. Kwakuziwa ngabantu abanobuhlanga, okwakungabathengisi nabadwebi, izigqila ezikhululekile nabasebenzi, abaculi nabaculi, abafuduki kanye nabomdabu base-Afrika. Ngenkathi iningi labahlali baseSifunda Six beyizisebenzi zaseKapa Amabala, abamhlophe, abamnyama, amaNdiya kanye namaJuda bonke bahlala laphaya ngaphesheya, bebonke bamele cishe ingxenye eyodwa yeshumi yenani labantu baseKapa.
Ukuhla kweSifunda
Kodwa-ke, njengoba isikhungo sendawo sakhula kakhulu, izakhamuzi ezicebile zaqala ukubona iSifunda Sithupha njengesihlosi esingafuneki. Ngo-1901, ukuqubuka kwalesi sifo kwanikeza izikhulu zedolobha isizathu sokuba baxoshe abamnyama abamnyama baseMelika ukuba baye kude nesifundazwe sesithupha ukuya edolobheni elisemngceleni wedolobha. Isizathu sokwenza kanjalo kwakuwukuthi izimo ezingekho emthethweni ezindaweni ezimbi njengeSifunda Sithupha zazibangele ukusabalalisa kwezifo, nokuthi amalokishi amasha azosebenza njengesigcawu kulabo abasengozini kakhulu. Phakathi nesikhathi esifanayo, izakhamuzi zaseCape Town ezicebile zaqala ukuthungula kude nendawo ukuya emazaneni ama-greener. Ngenxa yalokho, i-vacuum yenziwa ku-District Six, futhi indawo yaqala ukugoba phansi ekukhuphukeni kobumpofu obukhulu.
Ukuvuswa kobandlululo
Kodwa-ke, naphezu kwalolu shicilelo, iSifunda sesiThili sigcine ifa layo lokuhlukahluka kobuhlanga kuze kube sekupheleni kwesikhathi sobandlululo.
Ngo-1950, uMthetho we-Areas Group wamiswa, wenqabela ukuhlangana kwemiphakathi ehlukene endaweni eyodwa. Ngo-1966, iSifunda SaseSithupha sasikhethwa njengezindawo ezimhlophe kuphela, futhi inkathi yokuxoshwa ngokuphoqelelwa yaqala eminyakeni emibili kamuva. Ngaleso sikhathi, uhulumeni waqinisekisa ukuxoshwa ngokumemezela ukuthi iSifunda sesiFunda sesithupha saba yisisindo; umsebenzi wokuziphatha okubi nokungekho emthethweni kufaka phakathi ukuphuza, ukugembula nokudayisa ubufebe.
Eqinisweni, kungenzeka ukuthi indawo eseduze nendawo yedolobha kanye nechweba yenza kube yinto ekhangayo yokuthuthukiswa esikhathini esizayo.
Phakathi kuka-1966 no-1982, izakhamizi ezingaphezu kuka-60,000 zesifundazwe eziyisithupha zathunyiswa ngokufudumele ezindaweni zokuhlala ezingahlelekile ezakhiwe eKapa Flats ngamakhilomitha angu-15.5 / 25. Ngenxa yokuthi le ndawo yabizwa ingafanele ukuhlala, ama-bulldozers ahanjiswe ukuze ahlasele izindlu ezikhona, futhi abantu abaye bachitha ukuphila kwabo bonke eSifundazweni Six babezithola bethuthekile, izimpahla zabo zanciphisa kulokho ababengayithwala emakhaya abo. Izindawo zokukhulekela kuphela zazisinda, ukuze iSifundazwe Sesibili sibe yimpumelelo. Namuhla, abaningi balabo abahlala khona bahlala eCape Flats, lapho imiphumela yobandlululo-eqhubeka nobuphofu isabonakala kakhulu.
I-District Six Museum kanye neThe Fugard Theatre
Eminyakeni ngokushesha ngemva kokususwa, iSifunda Sesibili saba yisifanekiso kubantu baseNingizimu Afrika abangewona abamhlophe bokulimala okwenziwa ngesikhathi sokubandlululo. Ngenkathi ubandlululo luphela ngo-1994, iSamamethi yesithupha yaseSithili yasungulwa esontweni elidala lamaMethodist - esinye sezikhungo ezimbalwa ezizobhekana nokufika kwalezi zinhlamvu. Namuhla, kusebenza njengombono womphakathi kulabo ababahlali besifunda.
Inikezelwe ekulondolozeni isiko eliyingqayizivele le-pre-apartheid District Six; kanye nokuhlinzeka ngokuqondisisa ukuhlukunyezwa okubangelwa ukuhanjiswa okuphoqelelwe okwenzeka eNingizimu Afrika yonke.
Ihholo eliphakathi likhona ibalazwe elikhulu elidweba ngesandla lesifunda elisayinwe yizakhamuzi zangaphambili. Izimpawu eziningi zasendaweni zomgwaqo zazisindiswa futhi zihlala ezindongeni; kuyilapho ezinye izibonisi zivuselela amakhaya nezitolo. Amadokodo omsindo anika ama-akhawunti akho wokuphila esifundeni, nezithombe zibonisa ukuthi zibukeka kanjani ekuqaleni. Isitolo esihle kakhulu sinikezelwa ebuciko obukhulu, umculo kanye nezincwadi eziphefumulelwe endaweni kanye nomlando wayo. NgoFebruwari 2010, ihholo lesonto le-Congregational Church elishabalala manje eBuenenkant Street lavula iminyango yalo njengeThe Fugard Theater. Ebizwa nge-playwright yaseNingizimu Afrika u-Athol Fugard, le midlalo yeshashalazi igxile emidlalweni yezombangazwe ekhuthaza ukucabanga.
Ikusasa leSithupha lesifunda
Namuhla, indawo eyaziwa ngokuthi i-District Six iqoqa amadolobha ase-Capetonian yanamuhla e-Walmer Estate, Zonnebloem nase-Lower Vrede. Iningi lesifunda esidala lihlala lilahliwe, nakuba iSifunda Sokuhlomula SesiFundazwe Sokuqala kanye neRedevelopment Trust sesisungulwe ukuze sisize labo ababesuswa ezindaweni zabo ukuze babuyiselwe umhlaba wabo. Ezinye zalezi zimangalo ziye zaphumelela futhi izindlu ezintsha zakhiwe. Inqubo yokubuyisela i-convoluted futhi ihamba kancane, kodwa ithemba ukuthi njengoba abantu abaningi bebuyela eSifundazweni Sesi-6, le ndawo izothola uvuko - futhi yaziwe ngokuphindaphindiwe ngenxa yokubekezelelana ngokobuhlanga nokudala okuhlukahlukene.
