District Six in Cape Town, South Africa, was demolished during the apartheid era in the 1970s as part of the government's policy of forced removals, which aimed to segregate communities based on race. The area was predominantly inhabited by people of mixed race (Coloureds) and was declared a "whites only" zone. The demolition led to the displacement of thousands of residents, destroying a vibrant multicultural community. This act has left a lasting impact on South African society and is remembered as a symbol of the injustices of apartheid.
