1956 Women Marchers

# 1956 Women Marchers is an initiative of the Albertina and Walter Sisulu Foundation alongside South African History Online to gather the names and stories of the 20 000 plus women who marched under the banner of the Federation of South African Women to the Union Building on August 9th 1956 to protest the carrying of passes by African Women.

Let us name these women and tell their stories so that we can honour them and the role they played in their communities.

Help  us by sending us the name and biographical details of your friends, your neighbours and your mothers, aunts, sisters and grandmothers who participated in the march.
