  • Bertha Mkhize, née le 6 juin 1889 et morte le 3 octobre 1981 en Afrique du Sud, est une enseignante sud-africaine d'origine zouloue, membre de la Ligue des femmes de l'ANC qui a obtenu l'émancipation comme femme seule pour exploiter une entreprise de son propre droit. Lorsque le gouvernement Malan commence la mise en œuvre de l'apartheid à la fin des années 1940 et au début des années 1950, elle rejoint les syndicats et la fédération des femmes sud-africaines pour manifester contre cette politique. Elle est arrêtée à deux reprises pour ces activités et inculpée, la deuxième fois, pour trahison, mais n'est pas reconnue coupable des faits reprochés. Elle est cependant forcée d'abandonner son entreprise. Elle embrasse dans les années suivantes la doctrine Bahá'íe, prônant l'égalité entre tous les êtres humains. (fr)
