EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of Assistant Scoutmaster A.A. Waterman leading his Hillbrow Scout Troop in Johannesburg, South Africa. The year is uncertain, but the scene exudes an air of colonial South Africa in the mid-20th century. Waterman, a distinguished man with a stern yet compassionate expression, dons the traditional Scoutmaster uniform complete with a hat adorned with a badge. His men, dressed in their Scout uniforms, stand attentively behind him, their youthful faces reflecting a sense of camaraderie and discipline. The Hillbrow Scout Troop, based in the urban neighborhood of Hillbrow, was part of the larger global Scouting movement that aimed to promote character development and citizenship among young people. The Scouting movement, founded in the late 1800s, had gained significant popularity in South Africa by the mid-1900s, with many troops established across the country. Despite the colonial context of this photograph, it is essential to remember that the Scouting movement in South Africa was not solely a tool of colonialism. Instead, it provided a space for young people, regardless of race or ethnicity, to learn valuable life skills, build friendships, and contribute to their communities. The Hillbrow Scout Troop, under the leadership of Assistant Scoutmaster A.A. Waterman, was a testament to the transformative power of Scouting in shaping the lives of young South Africans during a pivotal period in their country's history.
