Down and out in Johannesburg

Sunday 21 March was Human Rights Day in South Africa. One of the rights in our Constitution is the right of ‘everyone to have access to adequate housing’. And yet homelessness is growing. In a series of articles published over a period of three days, Maverick Citizen asked homeless people to write about their experiences.
