Abstract

This text discusses how racialization, inequality and difference structure the landscape of Cape Town, touristic and cultural capital. We analyze how the city is symbolized, stressing it`s colonia2l binarism heritage through a linguistichistoric path. The text is filled by ethnographic observations performed during 18 months in Cape Town (2014-2015) from a research with activist’s women. The paper aim a regard beyond and through racialized shapes that structure city`s life, but without the intention of obliterate, make invisible or folkloric the huge racial, social and gender inequality, which is part of South Africa`s unfairness.
