WOMEN’S DAY 2019 Women bear brunt of savagery IN celebrating Women’s Month, we have moved from acknowledging the women’s march to the Union Building, on August 9, to acknowledging all women who have borne and still bear the brunt of the savagery of the oppressive apartheid state. One of these women who have not received the recognition they deserve is Galiema Haron (nee Sadan), the widow of as-Shaheed Imam Abdullah Haron. She is pictured below and on the left with her son, Professor Muhammed Haron and daughters, Shamela (left) and Fatiema. This month, we feature two articles (see pp 24-25) that give us a glimpse into the lives of three women who were left to fend for themselves and their children after having lost their spouses to the violence of the oppressive apartheid state.
