“Watching the re-take of Leleti Khumalo’s Sarafina! movement peace today had me with tears in my eyes. So much has changed yet so much has stayed the same in RSA! My heart aches for our nation & it’s unrealised dreams. Dreams that inspire hate, anger and despondency among youth!” said one tweep.
“We stan the OG #Sarafina still looking and moving like it’s 1988, with that hair and black and white uniform. Leleti is a queen!” said another fan.
