As Jacklyn Cock writes about the nearby Kowie River rivers ‘have the
power to connect us to nature, to our past and to our collective selves’.
When things go wrong with a river, as with the Zwartkops, we can see
reflected in the water various social and ecological ruptures, also
historically. With the pilgrimage, we became witnesses of these
disconnections and divisions through a visceral experience that has
sparked much thinking.
