Sophiatown
South Africa
Sophiatown connects to 1589 places across 9 topics through 49 Bunkabop connections, with politics, music, and literature making up the bulk of its ties. The suburb's forced removal under apartheid links it to Johannesburg and Soweto, and its connections include the Freedom Charter and the ANC's Anti-Removal Campaign. Township shebeens in Sophiatown were a seedbed for Black urban music styles that spread across South Africa and neighboring countries.
