In today's book review, we unpack a book called Women in Solitary: Inside the female resistance to apartheid by Shanthini Naidoo. The book tells the story of journalist Joyce Sikhakhane-Rankin who was held in solitary confinement with seven other women, including Winne Madikizela Mandela, for more than a year.
The story delves into how they refused to testfy in the “Trial of 22 in 1969”, their brutal detention and how they picked up their lives afterwards.
