  • Anti-Apartheid Movement Social Movements Are Rarely Born in Isolation, and the Anti-Apartheid Movement (AAM) in South Africa Is No Different
    Anti-Apartheid Movement Social movements are rarely born in isolation, and the anti-apartheid movement (AAM) in South Africa is no different. The AAM grew out of ongoing resistance movements and the efforts of many within South Africa and the international community to end racial inequality and the oppressive policies of enforced racial segregation in South Africa known as apartheid. Resistance to long-standing racial inequality in South Africa was evident before the beginning of the 20th century. Organized resistance began with groups such as the Natal Indian Congress, African churches, labor and trade unions, the African National Congress (ANC), and the Communist Party. Subsequent organizations such as the Pan Africanist Congress (PAC), founded in 1959 by Robert Sobukwe, the South African Student's Organization (SASO), founded in 1969 by Stephen Biko, and the United Democratic Front, founded in 1983 proved instrumental in ending apartheid. Early forms of resistance were primarily peaceful, including mass demonstrations, civil disobedience, boycotts, and strikes. These strategies, employed by various groups in an effort to achieve social justice and to bring an end to the oppressive white South African government, never quieted. However, as a result of ongoing racial segregation, subsequent generations of African leaders determined that violent measures were necessary in order to gain freedom. The 1940s witnessed a number of important events that became crucial for the AAM, both in South Africa and abroad. Within South Africa, Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu, and Oliver Tambo formed a youth league within the ANC to develop new strategies of resistance. Around the same time, the ever-growing oppression was forcing growing numbers of South Africans into exile in London.

RELAYS IN REBELLION: THE POWER IN LILIAN NGOYI AND FANNIE LOU HAMER by CATHY L. FREEMAN Under the Direction of Michelle Brattain ABSTRACT This thesis compares how Lilian Ngoyi of South Africa and Fannie Lou Hamer of the United States crafted political identities and assumed powerful leadership, respectively, in struggles against racial oppression via the African National Congress and the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee. The study asserts that Ngoyi and Hamer used alternative sources of personal power which arose from their location in the intersecting social categories of culture, gender and class. These categories challenge traditional disciplinary boundaries and complicate any analysis of political economy, state power relations and black liberation studies which minimize the contributions of women. Also, by analyzing resistance leadership squarely within both African and North American contexts, this thesis answers the call of scholar Patrick Manning for a “homeland and diaspora” model which positions Africa itself within the historiography of transnational academic debates.

  • Celebrating Women on Women's
    CELEBRATING WOMEN ON WOMEN’S DAY In one of the largest demonstrations staged in this country’s history, 20 000 women of all races marched to Pretoria’s Union Buildings on 9 August 1956, to present a petition against the carrying of passes by women to the Prime Minister, JG Strijdom. This famous march, which was first celebrated on the 9th of August in 1995, is now celebrated and commemorated every year. The march against the pass laws was organised by the Federation of South African Women (FSAW or FEDSAW). The Federation famously challenged the idea that ‘a woman’s place is in the kitchen’, declaring it instead to be ‘everywhere’. Although Prime Minister JG Strijdom was not at the Union Buildings to accept the petition, the women of South Africa sent a public message that they would not be intimidated and silenced by unjust laws. After the petition was handed over to the secretary of the prime minister, the women sang a freedom song: Wathint` abafazi, Strijdom! Since then, the phrase ‘wathint’ abafazi, wathint’ imbokodo’ (You Strike a Woman, You Strike a Rock) has come to represent the courage and strength of South African women. - SA History Online Rahima Moosa (14 October 1922 - 29 May 1993) Helen Joseph (8 April 1905 – 25 Dec 1992) is one was a member of the Transvaal Indian Congress of the most well-known South African women and later the African National Congress.

  • Feminisms, Motherisms, Patriarchies and Women's Voices
    CHAPTER 8 Feminisms, motherisms, patriarchies and women’s voices in the 1950s NOMBONISO GASA ac.za ress. p It had the effect of making the people confident and fearless, prepared to defy the w.hsrc laws, to be prepared to go to jail and meet any situation. That was the importance of it. It was the beginning of a new situation, which led even to a person facing the death penalty with confidence. The Campaign brought about a situation in which people were not arrested just by chance but by plan. This meant organi- sation…The movement called for volunteers. In the Eastern Cape, it was called Amadela Kufa, the defiers of death. You can see from this that a revolutionary situation was emerging. (Sisulu 2001: 79) Free download from ww The 1950s marked a decisive shift in the level, character and activities of the liberation movement, led by the African National Congress (ANC). This built on the foundation laid by the patient work of people like Reverend (later Canon) James Calata and Dr AB Xuma, who painstakingly built the organisation even in its weakest period. Calata took three years to complete his mandated organising tour of the country, visiting branches of the ANC, discussing conditions and what needed to be done. In those days, resources and travel were limited and difficult, quite unlike what we know today (Karis & Carter 1973: 408). The emergence of the militant ANC Youth League (ANCYL), launched at the same time as the ANC Women’s League (ANCWL) in 1943, is correctly credited with this dramatic shift which radicalised the ANC.

The stunning victory of the Patriotic Front in the February elections in Zimbabwe has sent shock wav:es throughout the world - especially across the Limpopo into the bastion of apart­ heid.

'The Pretoria response was an idea uttered by Prime' Minister Pieter Both~ for assembling a national conference of all races to stand I shoulder to shoulder' to defend South Africa against commmism. Botha has reneged and now says that his 'states conference' really means a gathering of leaders of his scheme of a 'constellation of Southern African states', a device for attempting to control all the sub-continent - a concept which now lies in ruins in the wake of the victory of the people in Zimbabwe.
