IN TRANSITION
Unidentified commuters wait for a train to arrive that will take them to work in Cape Town in Khayelitsha, the biggest black township outside Cape Town, South Africa, 2003. It's estimated that over one million people live here under appalling conditions, in shacks with no running water or electricity. The township was founded in 1984 and it still attracts people from the rural areas that look for work in Cape Town. Most of the people don't find work and most are paid low wages
