Quotes
You who have no work, speak. You who have no homes, speak. You who have to run like chickens from the vulture, speak. Let us share our problems so that we can solve them together.
as quoted in Remarks by the Minister Ms Lulu Xingwana MP, on the occasion of the Dulcie September Memorial Lecture at the University of the Western Cape, Cape Town
We must share the problems so that we can solve them together. We must free ourselves. Men and women must share housework...must work together in the home and out in the world. Women must unite to fight for...rights. We have opened the way for you. We must go forward!
United Women's Organization Opening Speech by Dora Tamana.
