NotInMyName calls for economic justice and a safer South Africa this Freedom Day

# NotInMyName International says Freedom Day celebrations must be matched with honest reflection as the country honours those who fought against apartheid and celebrates the right to dignity and freedom. The organisation warns economic inequality, unemployment, and crime continue to undermine the promise of liberation. It highlights ongoing poverty, state capture concerns, and rising gender-based violence. The group calls on leaders to treat economic justice and safety as urgent national priorities to ensure freedom is fully realised for all citizens.
