Danny Oosthuizen – The Dignity
Project
Former homeless Danny Oosthuizen
talks about The Dignity Project.
Before he lived on the street, Danny
Oosthuizen had a home like most of us do now. However, when he was diagnosed
with HIV, his life changed dramatically. He lost his parents before he was 15
and was taken in by his father's employee, a black woman. Because it was during
the Apartheid years, his community of white-speaking Afrikaans-speaking people
ostracised him.
Being raised by a black woman, his
HIV status and his sexual orientation caused him to be heckled by who he
thought was 'his race'. He began using drugs and fell into depression,
ultimately ending up on the street.
Cape Argus' Dignity Project has
given Danny and other homeless people a platform to have their voices heard and
to be seen.
