The Rand Club in Joburg South Africa, created in 1887 was the seat of power for the entire country for decades.

Apologies for blurriness in some of the photos.

We think US is a power-keg now, but we ain't close to SA late 80s/early 90s leading up to Mandela's release and the commission in the mid 90s.
Joburg's a rare city that was nearly destroyed and rebuilt 5 times its short history. It was run out of a bar for most that time. Nonviolence started there.

In senior primary we started getting into the heavier parts of Apartheid, and went to the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg.
After getting a bunch of 12 year olds traumatised, we went across the parking lot to Gold Reef City, a theme park based on Joburg's mining history.
Talk about tonal whiplash.
