Books - The Truth is on the Walls

THE STORIES OF NAZ GOOL EBRAHIM AND DISTRICT SIX are intimately linked; in fact it is hard to imagine the one without the other.  As the niece of Cissie Gool, Naz came from fighting stock.  Strong women with strong voices ran in the family.  So when the Apartheid Government declared the 'District'  a slum in 1966 and announced plans to flatten it, Naz wasn’t about to lose all that she held dear without a fight.  She became the voice of the voiceless, both in South Africa and in the USA and was nominated as ‘Woman of the Year’.  Naz combined her radical political activism with her roles as devoted wife and mother to six children.  Up until the end of her life in 2005, she worked tirelessly to oppose the evil of racial segregation.  To her opponents, she was an indomitable adversary, but to her friends she was ‘Naz-a-ma-tazz’, a great lady who certainly knew how to tell a story and put on a good show.
