Episode 15: Gukurahundi Foreign Backdrop
Today is Sunday the 8th of August 2021 today we talk on Gukurahundi: How; Who; What and Where!
Gukurahundi is a term used to refer to disturbances in Matabeleland and Midlands in the 1980s which resulted in the death of an estimated 20,000 Ndebele people. It was carried out by the North Korean trained 5th Brigade which was an elite regiment of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces. Gukurahundi is derived from a Shona language term which loosely translates to "the early rain which washes away the chaff before the spring rains". For Gukurahundi timeline click here.
