‘Commute’, a new four page comic strip by the Trantraal Brothers

Guests: Daneel Knoetze and Andre Transtraal, Commute’, a new four page comic strip founders Host: Linzi Bourhill, Cape Talk, Late Nights Topic: ‘Commute’, a new four page comic strip by the Trantraal Brothers Commute’, a new four page comic strip by the Trantraal Brothers, recounts the daily struggle of poor Black and coloured people in search of work and opportunity in the apartheid city. Set in Cape Town, the strip follows the journey of a single mother and domestic worker – Nkosazana – from a far flung Cape Town informal settlement, through the sprawling Cape Flats, into the city centre and onto her place of work in the upmarket neighbourhood of Sea Point. It is a story that we all know, by proxy if not through experience. Such journeys have become so essential to our city’s legacy of apartheid and colonialism that we, poor and wealthy people alike, have come to take them for granted.
