A group of women farmworkers in the Western Cape say they have little reason to celebrate this Freedom Day . Decades after the advent of democracy, they are raising concerns about evictions, landlessness, and insecure land tenure.
They marched to Parliament calling for urgent land reform.
For these women, Freedom Day is not a celebration. It is a reminder of what has not changed. Some say more than thirty years into democracy, they remain landless, face evictions, and have no secure rights to the land they live on.
