There can be no better tribute to Alexandra Kolontai, Lillian Ngoyi and Ruth First, than calling on young women of our times to take their rightful place in history. Conscious of our painful past as an oppressed global community, specifically the miseries that define the history of our enslaved and slaughtered (great) grand parents, the current generation of young women in Africa, the Americas, Asia and elsewhere should vigorously enter the science, mathematics, engineering and technology space and compete with the best in the world.
