This Saturday, at the fourth annual Mzansi Pride we unveiled the gold and black isiNdebele pattern piece.
Unlike the other necklace this one was also branded with our company initials, NC for Ndabeni Creatives. It was not long after we introduced the piece to the public that Gender Dynamix board of director, founder of the village market and director of Mr and Miss Gay Daveyton, Lee Siba snatch the piece for herself.

As you may know by now, Ndabeni Creatives supports the work done by members of the LGBTIQ community and our customers and close friends are either gay, lesbian or transgender. It is important for us as a company to be behind all the initiatives that aim to minimize homophobia.
It is good to know this year, there was no corrective rape case reported.
I have seen the daily harassment, stares and nasty comments directed at my friend, Yaya Mavundla, who is also the  founder of Mzansi Pride and would really want it to stop one day.

But asikholapho namhlanje, let me tell you about the exciting day it was on Saturday. So the whole progamme was about the LGBTIQ community. The day started off with a march around Newton Park Precinct  passing through Bree taxi rank this to create more visibility and awareness.
Then later the festivities of the pride parade were kicked off with a stellar performance from Amstel Maboa. Fresh from  Idols SA season 15 the top three finalist of the competition King B caught everyone's attention and had festival goers singing to Sam Smith's Stay with Me! song.
