Description
Miriam Makeba, known as 'Mama Africa', was a celebrated South African artist and activist. Born in segregated Johannesburg, her musical talents propelled her to international recognition in the 1960s. She was exiled from South Africa and later the United States due to her anti-apartheid and anti-segregation activism. Makeba continued to use her music to convey powerful messages. Her signature song 'Pata Pata' and other hits became anthems, solidifying her legacy as a significant figure in music and the fight for equality.
