Quote of the Day brings you spoken word from some of the most eloquent South Africans from across the spectrum.
Winnie Madikizela-Mandela
“The overwhelming majority of women accept patriarchy unquestioningly and even protect it, working out the resultant frustrations not against men but against themselves in their competition for men as sons, lovers and husbands. Traditionally the violated wife bides her time and off-loads her built-in aggression on her daughter-in-law. So men dominate women through the agency of women themselves.”
Winnie Madikizela-Mandela was a firebrand activist who fought the apartheid regime in South Africa. She was regularly imprisoned by the National Party, tortured, and held in solitary confinement for more than a year.
