Systemic suppression of women in the ANC undermines Thomas Sankara s revolutionary ideals on women s emancipation, writes
Lusanda Mahashe.
Firstly, I would like to situate my views within the political context of popular episodes that continued to take place around South African women s struggle as people organised against neoliberal policies of advanced capitalism and their resultant gross anecdotal inequalities in health, wealth, education and politics.
In this, I am emphasising the fact that women represent the most casualties and losers on these dispositions.
Secondly, I would like to argue my point using three illustrious women of the ANC as examples – Winnie Nomzamo Madikizela-Mandela, Lindiwe Nonceba Sisulu and Nomkhosi Mary Mini.
