Remembering South Africa's Soweto youth uprising

DW AfricaLink

June 16 is the anniversary of the Soweto uprising and South Africa celebrates it as Youth Day. The event symbolizes how vital young people are in shaping the continent. The ruling ANC lost a significant chunk of support, and much of that was down to youth voices. DW spoke to correspondent Nontokozo Mchunu, Dr. Thapelo Tselapedi in South Africa, and Cameroon correspondent Jean Marie Ngong Song.
