AFTER YOU WATCH
1. In what ways is your life similar to or different from your parents' life when they were young
2. Tandi said, “I don't think you become a person if you don't know where you come from.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement Why or why not
Possible answer: My life is similar to that of my parents in some ways, but they did not have computers or mobile phones when they were growing up. It seems most of my time nowadays is spent online.
Possible answer: I agree. There are many important factors that make one a person. To be a real person you need to understand where you come from, who you are, and where you are going. You need to think about the larger things in life, and see how you relate to history and society.
Narrator: Just outside Johannesburg, South Africa, the day begins for seventeen-year-old Mamorena Chaane. She's a student at St. Mary's, a very expensive private school. Mamorena gets a great education here. In South Africa, many people leave school as teenagers. So Mamorena is a very lucky young woman.
This is her mother, Tandi. She grew up in a poor area in Johannesburg. Today, she and her family live in the suburbs and she is a successful businesswoman. But every week, Tandi takes Mamorena to her old neighbourhood in Johannesburg. Tandi grew up here, and her life was very difficuit.
Tandi: This was a shanty town. This whole area was a shanty town.
Narrator: Tandi shows Mamorena her childhood home. She wants Mamorena to learn about the past-and about the poor today. But Mamorena doesn't really understand. Her life is so different. Her family has a beautiful home.
Mamorena: We're born on the same day.
Narrator: And the house has a pool. It's very different from her mother's childhood. In many ways, Mamorena is a typical teenager. She loves to go shopping.
Tandi: I want her to always remember who she is. Because I don't think you become a person if you don't know where you come from.
Narrator: Now, Mamorena and her generation must work hard too, says Tandi.
