The worlds of the inimitable Dolly Rathebe - the mega diva of Sophiatown, the gorgeous Drum magazine pin-up cover lady ,the church elder, the mother ,the lover- are explored in this rich and enchanting biography.Our stories, our legacy, our heritage ️

We celebrate this #FreedomDay with Inheritance, the English translation of ILIFA by Dr @athambile_m - These daring, contemporary and inventive poems are now in English, translated by the poet, and presented here alongside the original text. Inheritance is a window into the lives of Black women in South Africa right now – a deft dance between self-care and recrimination, between free love and social safety, and between the shadows of the past and the dim light of a just-as-complicated present @uhlangapressWe look forward to launching this poetry collection in June! Watch this pace ️ #freedomday2026
