South Africa’s young democracy was a culmination of years of sweat, blood and revolution against the apartheid regime.
In the early 1960s, after decades of “non-violence” as a policy of resistance, the ANC and Pan Africanist Congress (PAC) formed military wings to take the fight to the apartheid regime.
It would be easy to assume that the struggle against apartheid was almost entirely the domain of men. But women played a crucial role – one which is only really coming to light today.
