Abstract
The women’s march in 1956 to the Union Buildings in Pretoria
ended with thirty minutes of complete silence, as part of the
protest against the extension of the Apartheid pass laws to
women. Lilian Ngoyi initiated this muted half hour. It was a
quest for meditating on what kind of society South Africans
aspire to live in.
