HOMELANDS explores life in South Africa through the experiences of Donald Banda, who resides in an informal settlement in Pretoria. Photographs and first-person accounts reveal the complexities of social and economic inclusion in contemporary South Africa. They also speak to the universal human desire for belonging. As Donald says, "There is no place like home. But if home no longer feels like home, we are lost."
