Bra Don Mattera

The Sophiatown tree, an English Oak believed to be over 100 years old, survived the removals of the cosmopolitan community in the 1950s and 1960s. Members of various gangs living in the ghetto suburb used it as a meeting place. Poet, writer and former gangster Don Mattera refers to it in his book Gone with the Twilight. Religious leaders and activists also used to rendezvous under its branches.
However, there is also a sad side to its history. It became known as "the hanging tree" when two people hanged themselves from its branches, one objecting to the forced removals from Sophiatown.
