The Struggle for Freedom of Azania Was Her Life

The Life and Times, of a Resilient African Woman in the Politics of South Africa: A Portrait of a Woman in the Struggle for the Total Emancipation of the People of South Africa from the Chains and Shackles of Oppression, describes the indomitable Revolutionary spirit of Zondeni Sobukwe. The author celebrates the life and invaluable contribution made by an unsung heroine, Mrs Zondeni Veronica Zodwa Sobukwe, that has allowed us to live in the freedom we enjoy today and even take for granted. The recognition of the mothers of the liberation is long overdue and this author has definitely lifted Ma Zondeni to her rightful place in history. The Honorary Doctorate awarded Post-Humously to Ma Zondeni Sobukwe by the Vaal University of Technology has confirmed Robert Sobukwe’s belief that Africa never forgets. Indeed, it also affirmed his prophetic words, quoting an African popular song that: “noma sesingekho, noma sesifile bosala bethi sasikhona” (even if we are dead, even if we are no more, those remaining will say we were here).
