A silent revolution took place during this year's 16 Days of Activism on No Violence Against Women and Children when a brave, unknown and unsophisticated woman tackled the patriarchy head-on.

Elizabeth Gumede challenged a f law that denied her the equal right to her husband's possessions.

This woman and the constitutional court are my heroes in the fight against women abuse or any other violation.

This old lady is an example of the enormous power we have as individuals but more often than not fail to take advantage of.

Viva, Mama Elizabeth Gumede.
