I just relived my beautiful childhood through this video. My parents bought this video cassette and my brothers and I performed with them everyday in our living room.😂 I must say this was pure talent and I'm still in love with the gumboots dance.

I've been looking for for the first song in this for more than a decade. I only remembered that song, didn't remember the whole performance was this long. I did eventually find an audio version of the song on KZitem, it's called Sibiziwe. Thanks for this video, haven't seen it anywhere else.

OMG!!! Thank you sooo much for posting this wonderful, joyous, poignant show to You Tube! I went to see this live in Preston's Guildhall Theatre (Lancashire UK) in about 1995/6 because I was studying the history and legacy of slavery in America for my degree. I had of course heard about Apartheid in South Africa since I was a very young white British child, but I really didn't know much about it until, in my mid-twenties, the Soweto black youth uprisings began in 1976 and the full horror was plastered all over our TV and newspapers. Many years later I watched Whoopi Goldberg in the passionate and terrifying movie ''Sarafina'' in 1992. So off I went to ''Gumboots'' to learn about this previously unknown form of hidden resistance by the slaves in the goldmines. I read the program I'd bought and learned that the bells on the gumboots symbolized the shackles and chains worn 24/7 by the slaves. As in America, these slaves flouted their owner's terrifying rules: forbidden to speak, sing or play African musical instruments such as drums, all of these black slaves fell back on their native African heritage and oral culture and developed hidden languages. In S.Africa through their use of stamping and chain rattling, and in America by subverting the permitted Gospel Hymns by giving them secret meanings which the plantation owners in America misunderstood as the slaves embracing their own Christian religion. I remember making this connection because I'd already read that the hymn ''Wade in the Water'' was sung as a way to communicate to brave slaves to get to the known rivers and streams where white activists would take them to freedom in the North. I incorporated this comparison, including this show and it's program into my dissertation and was rewarded with not only the prize for the highest grade of the graduating students of that year and a 1st class Honours degree, but was invited to publish a shortened version to the Journal Of American Studies and a recommendation by my University to expand the theme to include Brazil, Puerto Rico, and other slave owning nations for an MPhil by research. Sadly I couldn't continue my studies as I had a young son and globetrotting trips to further the research were not possible, but I still continue to expand my love of this secret life affirming theme! All of this started with a single trip to the theatre and this amazing show!!! I've been searching for years for anything more than a few snippets here and there, so a massive Thank You again for this video. I now HAVE to venture into my loft where I have stored all my Uni essays, dissertation notes, and a cobbled together outline for my MPhil; plus hopefully the treasured ''Gumboots'' program
