Site of a 1976 uprising in South Africa (6)

I believe the answer is:

soweto

(Other definitions for soweto that I've seen before include "S. African urban area" , "Scene of 1976 riots southwest of Johannesburg" , "South African township area" , "Owes to the South African township" , "part of South Africa" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
