Social media has declared today Black Friday for Mama – and multiple Winnies have risen up in the hashtags: #IAmWinnie #RIPMama #AllBlackWithADoek
Not only was she a struggle hero and a mother to everyone she encountered, she was also an African woman with a fashion sense that had deep roots in where she came from.
Today, Mzansi women carry a piece of her in them.
Here are a few South African women, including some celebrities, who got the memo and are honouring Mam’ Winnie Madikizela-Mandela:

L - land (we want it)
A - adversity (we survived)
C - consciousness (we are)
