Uyinene’s mates did a great job via raising awareness for her. Their work is the reason why the entire country is in uproar. It may seem pointless now. But you will be the reason why change was even initiated. Niqine. Siyabonga. ♥️ #RIPUyinene

This violence is not once-off, this is something widespread and systemic. We need to speak about the foundations of gender-based violence. We need more open discussions and support. Let's maintain this outrage and use it to demand action. #RIPUyinene #StopViolenceAgainstWomen

1. She didn’t just die. 2. Name the violence. 3. You have power to do something. Condemning isn’t it. – at Beacon Bay, South Africa
We would like to extend our deepest condolences on the death of UCT Student #UyineneMrwetyana. May her soul rest in peace. Government condemns any form of violence against women and children. #RIPUyinene

When you tell women and girls to learn self-defense, or carry weapons against rapists, you're not reducing rape. You're just saying "let him rape someone more vulnerable." Stop calling for dystopias. Start working to end patriarchy. Make a world BEYOND RAPE. #Uyinene

Very important that everyone reads the attached when big news breaks. #Utrecht is the city I live in and I have no more idea what has happened than others living far away.

Yes. Banyana only gets money if they win a tournament. Banyana doesn't get to keep their kit after a match. Bayana players have second jobs to keep afloat financially. It's terrible.

Women have high rates of mental illness but women are almost never mass shooters. This isn't about mental illness. Its about Men + violence.
