AP PHOTOS: South Africa Hillbrow Festival
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP) — The streets of Hillbrow, a tough downtown Johannesburg district more famous for its hijacked buildings, poverty and raging crime, came alive on this sunny Saturday morning as hundreds joined in a joyful street parade mixing music, art and performances. The event has been a yearly happening since 1990. This year's parade is the brainchild of Shade Brixon director Tamzyn Botha. This is a photo gallery curated by AP photo editors.
