It has come to our attention that the incorrect version (no subtitles) of #StrikeaRock played on SABC, and was cut 20 minutes before the end. If you want to see the whole film-please see it on @ShowmaxOnline now, & #Afridocs for free. Watch this space for a link.
#RememberPaulinaMasuhlo who died after being shot by a rubber bullet by police a month after the #MarikanaMassacre . Police entered with impunity, shooting rubber bullets in the community. There has still been no justice for Paulina. #SayHerName

Watch Thumeka and Primrose (leaders of Sikhala Sonke Women’s organization) and Aliki (director/producer of Strike a Rock) tonight on Expressions on @Official_SABC1 at 9pm talking about the Marikana massacre 6 years later.
Not adhering to Social Labour Plans and the systemic violence which keeps people in poverty, created the conditions for the #Marikana massacre to occur. #RememberMarikana #MinersShotDown
Justice delayed is justice denied.
Six years later:
“The state has still not prosecuted all those responsible for the events at Marikana, offered an official apology or provided compensation.” google.co.za/amp/s/www.daily… #Marikana #MinersShotDown
“The life of a black person in Africa is so cheap” watch @MinersShotDown now on SABC 1. #Marikana #RememberMarikana
There has still been no justice for the killings at Marikana. #Lonmin and #SAPS have evaded responsibility. #CyrilRamaphosa “turn your promises into action.” m.news24.com/SouthAfrica/New…
SABC has finally agreed to screen @MinersShotDown , three years after its release. Watch it now on SABC 1. We will never forget. #RememberMarikana #Marikana
Watch @MinersShotDown now on SABC 1. Living conditions in Marikana have still not changed 6 years after the #Marikana massacre. Over 20k people still do not have decent housing.
After #HumanRightsDay we still have a long journey ahead of us. Conditions in #Marikana have not improved. #Lonmin must meet its SLP obligations. #JusticeForMarikana bit.ly/2G01x2Q
