Thandolwethu gets real about victims affected by gender-based violence
Updated | By Thandolwethu
Thandolwethu had a moment of silence for the women who were affected by gender-based violence and got real about the entire situation, which has gripped South Africa.

Listen to Thandolwethu's moving message, or read below:
I woke up with a very heavy heart on Tuesday. The death of 19-year-old UCT student, Uyinene Mrwetyana has sent shockwaves through South Africa and left me feeling very uneasy.
The question 'Am I next' spread like wildfire through social media, and I couldn't help by posing it to myself. Would I be next at the hands of a murderer?
I posed a question to the woman of KZN at the start of my show on Tuesday, and it set the mood for one of South Africa's darkest days.
Listen to the woman of KZN in the podcast, or read below:
I posted an open letter that was sent by a fellow colleague titled 'Dear men, we are not your property!', and I really echo the sentiments. I long for the time that we will be safe on our beautiful streets. When we can go out and wear what we want - not having to worry about groping hands or prying eyes.
My heart is heavy, and I am crying with the rest of South Africa. Today, I am standing with my East Coast Radio family and many others who will be wearing black in solidarity.
