In South Africa, during the dark days of apartheid , struggle songs became more than mere melodies they evolved into a powerful form of expression and unity amongst those fighting against the injustices and racial segregation enforced by the government.

These songs carried the weight of a nations heartache, resilience, and undying spirit, forging a collective identity that transcended boundaries.
