That is how a close friend and colleague described anti-apartheid and social justice activist Jennifer Davis who died in the United States last week.
Her friend and colleague Donna Katzin, who is the Executive Director of Shared Interest says she worked with Davis right up until her passing on October 15. Katzin says, “To get the comprehensive anti-Apartheid Act passed in 1985, before that which synchronized with the movements in the streets in South Africa and the defiance campaign, at the same time she was building a movement here that paralleled the protest movements in South Africa and she and other organisations that she helped to bring together, so I was working with the interfaith centre on corporate responsibility.
While volunteering at a Mandela Day clean up in central park in 2011 Davis said, “It’s enormously important to remember what his contribution to SA and the world was, he was a freedom fighter and by that I really mean he meant to change society. Things to remember are the courage, the determination to keep on working, the ability to look at people and recognize that they can change and they may change, but never to move off your fundamental principles, he was an extraordinarily principled man.
