The National Council of African Women was born out of “struggle” that emerged during the 1935-37 period in South African History. It was at this time that Prime Minister JBM Hertzog passed the Representation of Natives Bill and the Native Trust that affected the Black political aspirations and Land Bill which affected the Whites, known specifically as the “Hertzog Bills”. These bills were not pleasing to either the whites or Native citizens of South Africa. The Whites felt that too much was being handed over to the Natives at their expense, and the Natives were not pleased because they felt they had not been given enough. Most importantly, these bills disenfranchised the black citizens, specifically the Cape Colored population of South Africa who had enjoyed voting rights and the hopes of other African nations who were hopeful of gaining the right to vote.
