Abstract
This chapter attempts to give local and specific content to the question of redress through case studies of particular schools in the urban province of Gauteng. The meaning of racial redress is derived from the changing histories of schools in this region. The chapter shows that at the local level racial redress have meant very different things for different schools and different people in them. The chapter focuses on schools in Gauteng as this was and remains one of the most dynamic and rapidly changing areas in South Africa.-
