2005 “I” Stories: City of Johannesburg Councillors Speak Out

This book tells the stories of individual Johannesburg councillors serving the public in a vibrant and dynamic local government environment. It offers an insight into the role played by councillors in the context of a municipal authority that has been transformed from a racially defined Apartheid municipality, which benefited the white minority, to one that today seeks to serve all its citizens equitably. It therefore outlines the challenges that face the City of Johannesburg in turning freedom and democracy into reality.
