In Honour of Mama Tambo!
Representers as you may already know Mama Adelaide Frances (Tshukudu) Tambo has passed away at the age of 77. Mama Tambo was an anti- apartheid activist and a hero of the liberation struggle who fought against racism in all forms. She was also a recipient of the Order of the Baobab in Gold- one of the highest honours in our country. The order is named after the baobab tree, which was chosen as a symbol because of its endurance and tolerance, its vitality, and its use as a meeting place in traditional African societies.
The Represent team would like to pay tribute to Mama Tambo – we send our condolences to the Tambo family during this sad time.
