Puncturing the heart of Apartheid South Africa — the story of an extraordinary woman, mother, and activist.
In 1959, a South African Native Commissioner under police escort travelled to Paarl, a small, multi-racial community outside Cape Town to present banning orders to Elizabeth Mafeking—a recognized African women’s leader and trade union president. The directive instructed the married mother of eleven to leave all but one of her children—a nursing infant—behind in Paarl and submit to a banning order that would send her more than 600 miles away from her home of 22 years. In the ultimate act of defiance, Mafeking escaped her escort on the day her banning went into effect and fled the country for a life in exile, and One Day We Are Going Home is the story of one woman's struggle to redeem her cause, her family, and herself in a long-awaited triumph over Apartheid.
