I'm sitting here in tears. This woman had more courage and strength than entire nations of people.

She left Africa..Africa never left from her heart. RIP mama

One of the most brilliant and most amazing beautiful woman in history.

I was deeply moved when I listened to this interview. Makena has always been a childhood hero of mine, and her songs were a big part of my life. I didn't realize that she had been banned from mainstream media because of her choice of spouse. Even though I was just a Venezuelan kid who adored Miriam's music, I have grown up and still hold her in high regard. This makes me feel connected to her and her experiences, as we are all part of a global community that continues to expand and intertwine every day.

She was a rare gem. A gift to the world whose name shall exist in perpetuity.

She always exudes such confidence and humility perfectly blended.

If people could see and watch people like mama talking am sure this World will be a better place to live.
Rest in Peace mama

Very painful to look at this interview. Despite the large smile on this legend woman's face, you could perceive deep sadness in her heart. Very awful for me to see that. We don't have this kind courage in 21st century anymore.

She is more well spoken than 99% of native English speakers. Speaks very slowly and clearly. Every word matters. Beautiful soul. Mama Africa.

Love her.  I would love to see her life story as a movie.

I remember proclaiming to my mum I will work hard in my education and go marry miriam makeba.

Random information: This wonderful woman is responsible for naming my older cousin! True story!

Her book is very sad.  Exile. Cancer scare, Domestic violence, oppressive apartheid system, daughter's death. Grandson's death.  She has been through a lot. RIP

Miriam makebas songs, music and voice still lives in our hearts her powerful voice that echoes within our ear dreams that reminds us of humanity, confidence, resilience, hardwork and determination

I love listening to Miriam Makeba talk and express herself about what pains her and what rejoices her. "Political analysts" in imperialist media will try to confuse us, make things look very articulate, but at the core of oppression is something very violent, direct. Listening to her subjectivity gives the most important things to know about what is sold to us as "geopolitics": what happens to someone who's oppressed, robbed and deprived of their rights. I saw a picture of Makeba and Kwame Ture together as young fighters. Their energy lives on forever

I love this woman , my Hero

She was a beautiful strong sister✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

Great Woman she was. We miss her greatly.

The question about sacrifices she made I mean really. This woman was a sad woman. She lost so much for her country men to gain.

Our Beautiful African daughter
Rest in peace gal
