Titled Beauty of the Heart: The life and times of Charlotte Mannya Maxeke, and authored by journalist Zubeida Jaffer, the book chronicles the life of the late struggle icon. Maxeke helped to organise anti-pass movement in 1913 and later in 1918 she founded the Bantu Women’s League of the SANNC, paving the way for ANC Woman’s League.
