To the women of the revolution Who don lipstick like war paint Headwraps like armour Defying the sky defying the patriarchy You are magic. As we took to the streets There was thunder in the sky And thunder in our hearts And the most curious thing Is that it rained But did not dampen our spirits. Watch how iimbokodo march the streets And trample white supremacist capitalist heterosexist patriarchy In the same breadth As we trample racism. Because this revolution will be intersectional Or it will be bollocks. See how we march with grace, with fierceness, with violent spirits With a roar And such beauty! How are we not magic? Mbokodo, lead.

Yours in power, The Black Feather (AKA Relebone Rirhandzu eAfrika)
