Distinctly South African.

We shot a portrait of Shaqir Erasmus earlier this week, and had an interesting chat with him about his identity. Shaqir has his ancestry from Khoi Khoi, Java and France (Hugenot) which makes him quite uniquely South African. We will upload some interview clips later to this blog so keep on coming back to hear what his views are on his community and South African identity in general.
