Tomorrow, South Africa will observe Women’s Day. In 1956, 20,000 South African women of all races and backgrounds fought against repressive apartheid-era pass laws. We thank these courageous heroines for their efforts and celebrate the freedoms that have come with it… like Helen Zille’s freedom to comment on the GNU this week, which has upset the ANC. 😆

The women of 1956 may be dismayed to learn of the racism that still persists at schools. We thought the kids were alright. What went wrong? There’s also some sad drama on the Miss SA front, with days to go to the pageant. On a lighter, more pleasant-smelling note, there’s a perfume for dogs that costs an arm and a leg, and Team SA continues impressing at the Olympics, which end on Sunday.

So, let’s dive into your weekly update of empowering and easy-to-understand news, brought to you by Verashni Pillay and the explain.co.za team. 😄
