I got used to pulling my news in realtime. Would search for the #Jozi #gunshots #protests hashtag. To give me a sense of control, just how bad were things. Scroll through different sources. Judge what valid. Who were the different voices (with their different agendas). The imaginary worked. I bought into it. Its now broken, but not better. And as i wonder what’s happening in Bree street. Its going to take a while getting used to the absence of a town square.
If you are interested in escape from NY scenes in downtown Jozi. Then Alex (bird site) seems like a good source of information. https://twitter.com/IamAlexSweet
