5 October 2017
Cape Town – Hundreds of people are expected to march in the Cape Town CBD on Thursday morning in solidarity with the families of the 11 people who were killed during a shooting in the Marikana informal settlement in Philippi on Friday evening.
In a Twitter post, the Social Justice Coalition said the march would start at the Cape Town Civic Centre and head to the police's provincial offices.
The march is set to start at 11:00.
"The Marikana community is in crisis. Poor, working-class black people are being killed in their homes," the organisation said.
