Chapter 3: WINNIE - Fair and Pure (1988 – 1989)

Soweto descends into fear and chaos as the apartheid security police continue to stoke the fires of distrust and suspicion amongst the residents. Vigilantes patrol the streets. Brutal necklacing becomes a symbol of rage. Informers and spies operate in the shadows. At the centre of it all stands the Mandela United Football Club – and Winnie. Allegations mount: abductions, assaults, murder. Two grieving mothers recount the disappearance of their sons. Eight allegations of kidnapping and assault. Fourteen allegations of murder. The violence, the secrecy, the betrayal – all orbit her name. Drawn into a dark and unfamiliar past, Swati and Zaziwe confront the question that reverberates beyond the courtroom: how do you ask your grandmother if she is a murderer?
