Dangerwear's Birth Place

Nyanga is situated 26 kilometers from Cape Town along N2 highway, close to the Cape Town International Airport and next to the townships of Gugulethu and Crossroads.

Nyanga is a township in Cape Town, South Africa. Its name in Xhosa means ‘moon’ and it is one of the oldest black townships in Cape Town. It was established as a result of the migrant labor system. In the early fifties black migrants were forced to settle in Nyanga as Langa became too small. Nyanga is one of the poorest and most dangerous parts of Cape Town. Its unemployment is estimated at around 70% and HIV/AIDS is a huge community issue.

Residents of Nyanga were active in joining a national call to protest against the apartheid laws passed in 1960. Later they were active in the 1976 student uprisings against the use of Afrikaans as first language in schools. Nyanga became notorious for its black on black faction fighting that was allegedly perpetrated by police in the early eighties. The local authorities (izibonda) grouped themselves according to their background and used that as their criteria when allocating land. These cultural differences were allegedly used by the police to stir up violence, and elements of the community were infiltrated by the apartheid regime. This led to emergence of the notoriously violent group called "the witdoeke" (the white scarf’s).
In the early eighties the youth targeted heavy drinking and shebeens as obstacles to political change. They destroyed shebeens with petrol bombs and stones forcing many operators to close down. The police took a demolished building that had been a shebeen and developed it into to a police station.[citation needed]Nyanga is made up by nine townships (Lusaka, KTC, Old Location,
Maumau, Zwelitsha, Maholweni "Hostels" ,Black City, White City and Barcelona & Europe). Nyanga has been rated as the highest crime rate Township in South Africa.

Dangerwear

Dangerwear is the process of conveying information from a sender (wearing the product with his/her personalized massage to the community) to a receiver (Any one coming to wards the sender) with the use of Lexis in which the exchange a few words and information which is understood the same way by both the sender and the receiver. It is a process that allows individuals to exchange information by several methods.

Dangerwear is relating to the process of acquiring knowledge by the use of reasoning, intuition and perception. It is an income of language achievement, of communication, and of sharing information and ideas. Readers may use a variety of reading strategies. Other types of reading may not be text-based, such as music notation or pictograms. By analogy, in computer science, "reading" refers to the acquisition of data from some sort of computer storage.

Although Dangerwear prints text, an important way for the general population to access information, this has not always been the case. With some exceptions, only a small percentage of the population in many countries was considered literate before the Industrial Revolution.

Dangerwear has grown from a small idea for a love couple to a fully fledge street fashion label. The label is based in South Africa, Cape Town; in a Township name Nyanga. Dangerwear represents the best home grown designs. The company's excellent designs have got a unique township style to produce a range of unlimited editions and designs. Keep an eye on Dangerwear clothing. They’ve still got much to say, do and produce.
