It’s Women’s Day.
Almost 70 years ago a group of South African women, marched to the Union Buildings in Pretoria.
They were campaigning to bring an end to the pass laws, enforced by the Apartheid government.
Today, the Castle of Good Hope is marking that legacy, with a series of events, honouring women in Cape Town.
It includes women from all walks of life.
From those running an orphanage in Langa, to groups from Manenberg, Lavender Hill, and other areas scarred by gangsterism.
Here’s CEO Calvyn Gilfellan.
He says the event is open and free.
