    The dust is still settling on what was another historic week for our country, for all the wrong reasons.

    As it stands, the situation in Gauteng appears to be under control, as well as in KwaZulu-Natal, although there was one report of looting in Hammarsdale yesterday.

    A fire in the Durban CBD yesterday was likely caused by an electrical fault, and had no ties to the unrest.

    We have covered what occurred, what and who caused it, and what remains behind already, so we’ll skip ahead to the latest video doing the rounds.

    SA People reports that Purge South Africa “is an incredibly hard video to watch. Disturbing. Upsetting. But it’s important, and going viral.”

    Filmmaker Anthony George Kirkwood is behind the video, and he describes Purge South Africa as follows:

    The week from hell. No one could train you for what we have witnessed on the frontline. Those on the frontline all knew the presence of each other, it was enough to understand we were not going to back down from this Zuma fraction.

    Lack of sleep, camaraderie, dead bodies, being shot at, this was the taste of war. There was no time to think about tomorrow or next week.

    From Cato Ridge to Central Durban, just pure adrenaline for days on end. The week we did not back down. The week we were willing to die for our country.

    Those are strong words.

    Before we get to the video, remember that South Africa is the most unequal society in the world, which helps make fomenting large-scale violence of this nature possible.

    Due to the graphic nature of the video, you will need to watch it on YouTube.

    You can do that here, or click ‘Watch on YouTube’ below:

    Among the rubble and the weapons, there are many stories of South Africans coming together.

    Pilots have been busy transporting medical supplies and other essential items to areas in need, and the RebuildSA Volunteers Group on Facebook has more than 58 000 members.

    We will need to keep that spirit of togetherness going, because a very long road lies ahead.
