• Fieldwork for this article was carried out sporadically in 1996 and 1997 with Honours students, as part of a capacity‐building exercise. A version of this paper was first presented at the Annual Conference of the Association for Anthropology in Southern Africa at the University of Stellenbosch in January 1998. I wish to express appreciation to the University of Durban‐Westville for their support of this project and for funds to travel to the conference, as well as Mr A Naidoo, from the university's Department of English, for reviewing this article.
