🇿🇦"You Strike a Woman, You Strike a Rock" Today is National Women’s Day in South Africa. 🗓 On August 9, 1956, a protest march was held in Pretoria against the extension of the humiliating Pass Laws to black women — apartheid-era regulations requiring all black South Africans to carry a “dompas” containing their personal details and movement permits. ✊ The march was led by four courageous women: Helen Joseph, Rahima Moosa, Sophie Williams, and Lillian Ngoyi. A monument in central Pretoria now honors their legacy. 📌 The slogan "You strike a woman, you strike a rock" became a powerful emblem of women’s strength and resilience: oppression only solidifies their resolve. #SouthAfrica#NationalWomensDay#PassLaws#Apartheid#Pretoria#WomensRights#History
