    Site History

    Located in New Brighton, the Emlotheni Memorial Park is dedicated to the memory of six anti-apartheid activists who paid the supreme price for their activism. The Emlotheni site was used for meetings during the Defiance Campaign. In 2008 the mortal remains of MK cadres who had been hanged in 1963 were exhumed and buried here. The six, who were amongst the first MK soldiers to be executed by the apartheid regime, are: Vuyisile Mini, Zinakile Mkhaba, Jonas, Mpetse and Wilson Khayinga.
