National Women's Day

Today is National Womens Day in South Africa! A day when women are honoured for their bravery. In 1956 women of all races marched to the Union Buildings in protest against the Pass Law.
They concluded the march with freedom songs like Nkosi Sikeleli Afrika and one which translated means" Now you have touched a woman, You have struck a rock!"

This is a fantastic prompt for a journal page- Powerful Women/ Woman of Substance.
