So incredibly excited for this event on Thursday evening at 6PM. The OR Tambo School of leadership book club is hosting a public book review of Beauty of the Heart. We did the dry run for this event yesterday and I must say I am very excited for the group of young people participating in the discussion. Please join us.

So very excited to be participating in this amazin

So very excited to be participating in this amazing event where I will be chatting to the women of #UFS on being a women of care as well as bouncing back from my struggle with mental health. I have had to face so many mental health challenges after I was detained and tortured by the security police in my early 20s. It is something that still haunts me. As a female journalist in a largely male dominated industry - being weak or showing weakness was never an option - so for decades I suffered in silence determined not to let my illnesses control me. But lately I have taken a different approach. I have chosen to embrace this part of me. And this has made all the difference. #mentalhealth #womensmonth #ptsd #apartheid #struggleactivist #activist #beautyoftheheart #ourgeneration #loveinthetimeoftreason #torture #southafrica #female #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #depression #anxiety #fear #love

Wow I got sent this incredible picture from Mrs Shereen Domingo from Prestwich Primary School where Grade 6 learners are analyzing my reflections on women’s day in the classroom. With all the doom and gloom we are being bombarded with lately this just reminds me of how great South Africa is despite all our flaws.

Women's Football played a match in Nyanga in honour of Charlotte Mannya Maxeke on Women's Day.
Organised by Western Cape SAFA, the match was twinned with an educational programme at the Zolani Centre.
The rain threatened to hamper the event but fortunately the sun shone through allowing the young women from Hotspurs to play against Green Lovers.
Hotspurs won 7 to 1 on the soccer pitch adjacent to the hall.
Western Cape President of Safa, Mr Bennett Bailey and Vice-president Nomonde Ndyoko hosted the proceedings.
I was invited to share the story of South Africa's first black female graduate - Charlotte Mannya Maxeke - and my biography Beauty of the Heart - with the audience. #safa #beautyoftheheart #zubeidajaffer #soccer #womensday #charlottemaxeke #iol #capetimes #hotspurs #greenlovers #westerncape #zolanicentre #nyanga
