Description
Photograph of a human settlement consisting of cube-like small houses.
Note on the back reading: "Lokation der Eingeborenen. In den kleinen Hütten wohnen große Familien zusammengepfercht. In der Lokation im Goldgebiet herrscht ein Wirrwarr von eingeborenen Stämmen. Der sittliche Zustand ist furchtbar. Zuweilen lassen weiße Männer, die die Aufsicht zu führen haben, alles geschehen – die Schwarzen bezahlen dafür." ("Location of the natives. Squeezed in the small huts big families are living. In the location in the gold region there is a chaos of indigenous tribes. The moral state is terrible. Sometimes the supervising white men let everything happen - the blacks pay the price for it.")
