Title: Drum Magazine social history photographs, South Africa edition 1832 Description: "Mgewu Ndini": Martha Mdenge's Powerful New Release. Hot Toddy reviews Martha Mdenge's new record, Quality TJ 68, titled "Mgewu Ndini." This release boasts such richness that I wish I could reproduce it word for word. The title itself is particularly striking. "Mgewu" carries a multitude of meanings: wretch, scoundrel, crook, villain, vagabond, and miscreant. The addition of "Ndini," which means "thou," intensifies these meanings a thousand-fold, making the title a powerful and evocative declaration. Country: South Africa Date Created: January 1955 Creator: Drum Social Histories Credit Notice: Drum Magazine photographer / Drum Social Histories / Bailey's African History Archive / african.pictures Keywords:- Drum Magazine social history photographs
