Abahlali baseMjondolo is the largest movement of the poor in South Africa. It is not a political party. It is working for shack dwellers and other poor people, like street traders. Abahlali has members in 34 shack settlements across Durban and as far away as Pietermaritzburg and Tongaat.
Abahlali grew out of a protest organised from the Kennedy Road settlement. On 18 March 2005 bulldozers started digging up a piece of land next to the Kennedy Road settlement which had long been promised for housing. People discovered from the workers on the site that this wasn’t the beginning of the long promised housing development but that a brick factory was being built. They gathered on the promised land, stopped the construction and asked the local councillor to come and explain what was happening. He arrived with the police and demanded the arrest of his constituents. They are, he said, criminal. That night there was a mass meeting in the settlement. After long and careful discussion a new course of action was decided on. Early the next morning a few hundred people barricaded a nearby 6 lane road with burning tyres and held it against the riot police for 4 hours suffering 14 arrests. Alfred Mdletshe told Fred Kockott, the fi rst journalist on the scene, that ‘We are tired of living and walking in shit. The council must allocate land for housing us. Instead they are giving it to property developers to make money’.
The day after the road blockade 1200 people staged an illegal march on the police station where the 14 were being held. Their demand was that either the 14 be released or else the entire community be arrested because ‘If they are criminal then we are all criminal’. The march was dispersed with more beatings, dogs and tear gas. At a packed meeting in the Kennedy Road hall that afternoon the chair of the Kennedy Road committee S’bu Zikode declared that ‘We are on our own now’.
The first two illegal protests from Kennedy Road were followed by a series of legal marches on the nearby local councillors, some involving more than 5000 people. In each of these marches the protestors carried a mock coffin and then staged a performance of a funeral for the councillor outside his office. On 6 October 2005 17 men and 15 women elected as representatives from 12 settlements that now had committees supporting the shack dwellers’ struggle met to formally constitute themselves into a movement, Abahlali baseMjondolo, and to commit themselves to stand together and to fight together for popular democracy and land and housing in the city. Since then Abahlali have democratised the governance of settlements, stopped evictions, won access to local schools, won some victories around services like water, toilets and refuse removal; got top class legal support and won a number of victories in court; made the voice of shack dwellers very strong in the media; set up crиches, a sewing co-operative and vegetable gardens; enabled collective bargaining with the state and capital and seriously challenged the city’s slum clearance project that wants to move most shack dwellers out of the city and dump them in formal jondolos in rural areas.
