Description: SAED:SOCIAL:PERSONALITY: DRUM MARCH 1953 ââ¬â HOUSEWIFE ââ¬â Visitors call on Sunday afternoon, and Rose entertains her husbandââ¬â¢s boxing colleagues. Guests are (I. to r.) Nurse Sophie Ntesele, Springs promoter L. Zwane, Miss Eva Matsaba, and boxer Nic Sibeko. Tomorrow she will be up at 6.0, for a hard day. While men go out into the world for fame and fortune, Africaââ¬â¢s women are working, quietly and modestly, keeping the home and family. All over Africa, in every village and township, women are fighting their lonely battle against the ever-growing trials of keeping house. 32-Year old Rose Rachel Thlopane is one of them ââ¬â and here Drum takes you into her home. Hats off to the Housewife. (Photograph by Jurgen Schadeberg éBaileys Archives) NEG 177 FRAME 4
