DR. SOPHIA WILLIAMS-DE BRUYN SAYS - SEVENTY YEARS AFTER THEIR 1956 MARCH AGAINST THE APARTHEID REGIME'S PASS LAWS - MORE WORK NEED TO BE DONE

Seventy years on - and the struggle may have change but the work is far from over. That's the message from the last surviving leader of the 1956 Women's March, Dr Sophia Williams-De Bruyn. Williams-De Bruyn joined thousands of women, who marched to the Union Buildings against apartheid's pass laws. Her legacy was honoured by the University of South Africa and the South African Council of Churches. The event brought together veterans of the struggle and a new generation being called on to carry the baton forward. Bonolo Maribe filed this report
