> Dorothy Nyembe. Among the thousands of political prisoners and detainees incarcerated in South African jails since 1962, there have been hundreds of women, who, side by side with the men, have been struggling against the inhuman apartheid regime. Dorothy Hyembe, sentenced to the longest single term of imprisonment handed down to a woman (15 years) may well epitomise them all. ... We salute her in the year of her release--1984--The Year of the Woman.
