Scope and content

Constantia is currently an affluent residential area, but it is also the site of forced removals of coloured farmers, predominantly strawberry, vegetable and flower growers. These two interviews with Christian Pieterson explore experiences and memories of his family who lived for generations in the Constantia area and were forcibly removed to Grassy Park in 1967. Themes include: childhood memories (baking, household chores, family life); experience of forced removals (remembering the day); generational memory; Land Claims Court; Meadowridge township; physical environment (Strawberry Lane School, cemetery, police station, roads, buildings); racial discrimination; religion; removals to Grassy Park; titles and deeds (restitution/land claims for community).
