The missing millions

First edition

"This is a story about the landlessness and poverty that continue to plague working-class black people in South Africa, and the plan devised by four gentlemen to overcome this. The title suggests a heist, but it should be read against the background of the biggest land grab to have occurred in our country's history: the Natives Land Act of 1913. Nearly a century later, in 2018, Themba Boqwana, Thando Wontoti, Buntu Nonkelela and Sande Dotyeni, participated in what media termed "the largest land invasions ever experienced by Buffalo City Municipality". In that chaos of land invasions, marred by violence and mayhem, they saw an opportunity and established Cove Rock New Development, a project for the missing millions, or the missing middle: those who have been excluded from participating in our country's wealth. In confronting the issue of landlessness, they advocate a society that allows "a hundred flowers to bloom". In this book, they confront some of the conundrums that persist in modern-day South Africa, and the impact these have on the country's missing millions. The question that ultimately arises is whether government should reconsider its approach to the land question by accommodating the views expressed here. In a country that is widely regarded as the most unequal in the world, these four gentlemen offer government and other stakeholders a sustainable economic strategy in remedying persistent wealth disparities between black and white South Africans."--
