A member of the Lenasia community shouts through a hole in her poster during a protest against the recent land invaders who tried to settle on an open piece of land near their houses, in Johannesburg, South Africa, 05 September 2018. The area has seen thousands of illegal shacks being erected over the past months as both South African and foreign nationals moved to the city to live. The issues of land, and its redistribution, is an important topic in South Africa as the government looks at the option of handing land to previously disadvantaged communities without payment to the land owners. Houses in Lensasia south, where these invasions happened, have lost 40 percent value as residents tried to stop trespassers from taking more land. (Photo by Kim Ludbrook/EPA/EFE)
