Episode 21-We Celebrate Mme Dorothy Nyembe

Conversations With La Nkosi

She was one of the leaders who stood against the removals from Cato Manor in 1956, she also was among the leaders who lead the boycotts of the government controlled beer hall. "The beer halls were perceived to destroy traditional beer brewing, the only viable source of income for women in the townships." #DorothyNyembe #Blackwomen #phenomenalwomenofcolor #conversationswithlankosi #lankosiwrites
