In chapter 5,what was the impact of the forced removals on the families

Mandisa and her family were moved to Guguletu as a part of a massive forced migration of black people out of "white areas." These people lived in clusters called "black spots," which usually appeared due to the amounts of black people who worked in white homes in "white areas." The white government, deciding that owning the majority of the land was not enough, pushed these black people out of the area and into crowded townships far away from the urban centers. These townships were unprepared for the millions of people who would soon flood into them. This forced migration is compared to a "whirlwind" by Mandisa, who describes black people in this situation as "perched on a precarious leaf balking a tornado" (38).
