SA's groundbreaking repatriation initiatives for Khoi and San remains

These initiatives not only aim to restore dignity to ancestors but also honour the memory of those who sacrificed everything for the nation's freedom. Minister Gayton McKenzie emphasised the need to correct historical wrongs, saying: "These are acts of justice, remembrance, and healing."

The minister acknowledged the individuals whose lives were marked by dispossession and erasure.

"Today we gather not only to give an update but to honour the memory of those whose dignity was stolen through centuries of injustice."
