''Sisters in the Struggle'': Women of Indian Origin in South Africa''s Liberation Struggle 19001994 (VOLUME 1: 19001940s)

Sisters in the struggle: Women of Indian Origin in South Africas Liberation Struggle 19001994 unveils an unchartered historical terrain, highlighting the contributions of Indian women towards non-racialism and equality and their experiences within diverse political parties; therefore, shifting the post-apartheid liberation stories which have been dominated by the journey of the ANC to other political organisations who collectively played a significant role in South Africas road to democracy.

In this book, Hiralal presents a refreshing perspective of Indians, particularly women, as contributors and activists in the struggle. The book elucidates that the struggle against apartheid was a collective endeavour among the oppressed races and not a one-sided endeavour by the ANC. The book, thus, examines the participation of Indian women against apartheid and colonialism within gendered and political frameworks.
