“The struggle of the urban landless and all landless people of South Africa is entangled in a web of interest group politics. On one hand, there are concentrated interests of wealthy, White landowners … On the other, there are the dispersed interests of the landless, poor communities who are not central to the government’s priorities.” – Yoliswa Msweli, independent land researcher Read her reflections on the screening of the documentary film Mother City at the #NelsonMandelaFoundation last month: https://lnkd.in/dhCbFuWX #UrbanLandReform #LandReform #Land

The Women’s March on 9 August 1956 was a pivotal event in South African history. Thousands of women marched to the Union Buildings in Pretoria to protest against the pass laws that restricted the movement of black South Africans. Today, on #WomensDay, we thank all those brave women, including Lilian Ngoyi, Helen Joseph, Rahima Moosa, Sophia Williams-De Bruyn and Amina Cachalia, to mention a few, on whose shoulders we stand as we celebrate #30YearsOfDemocracy in South Africa this year. #NelsonMandelaFoundation #WomenInHistory
