My name is Thandiswa Mazwai.
41

1800
04:24
I am a wild woman, a rebel singer, a conduit.
42
264320
4880
04:31
My music is about memory
43
271279

04:33
and struggling between oppresion and freedom.
44

04:40
After over 20 years in South Africa
45
280880
2216
04:43
we find ourselves as the black masses
46
283120
3400
04:48
still suffering and fighting for our freedom and humanity.
47

04:53
This first song was called "Iyeza" which means "medicine."
48
293880
4600
04:59
Medicine for our madness, medicine for our rage.
49
299240
4000
05:04
This song we're doing now is called "Zabalaza,"
50
304760
3616
05:08
and it means "rebel."
51
308400

05:11
I'd like to dedicate this to the valiant student movement in South Africa
52

who came up with the #FeesMustFall.

05:23
But more importantly,
57
323320
1576
05:24
the new vigor that has been brought into the feminist movement
58
324920
3976
05:28
so patriarchy must fall.
