On 9 August 1984, African, White, Coloured and Indian women took to the streets of Johannesburg. They held placards saying,"Women unite against Botha's new deals, and Our sons won't defend apartheid, "You have struck a rock, you have touched the women, GST is killing us. The women were saying - these are our problems. They are caused by apartheid and the system of racial and economic exploitation in South Africa. Why do these problems exist in South Africa and where did they come from? In this book we try to give answers. In their own words, African women talk about their lives. They speak of their families, their jobs, their joys and hardships.
