She reflects on how her marriage into a politically active family played a crucial role in her choice to offer refuge to certain members of Umkhonto we Sizwe who required assistance. Zondi recounts a typical day when she witnessed white police officers, accompanied by a black man she recognized, detaining a man in a black coat. She mentions that such incidents were common, which led her to initially respond with apathy. It was only after her child returned from the central business district of Howick and informed her about Mandela's arrest that she fully grasped the seriousness of the situation.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eZondi reflects on her experiences after marrying into the Zondi family, highlighting the notable contrasts she faced due to her husband's early maternal loss, which resulted in his upbringing by a stepmother. She observes that the Shelembe family was financially secure, as her father owned a shop. After her marriage, her own father often purchased groceries and provided financial assistance that could support the Zondi household for an entire month. Concerning her physical appearance, she describes her father as exceptionally attractive, crediting his good looks to her paternal grandmother, who originated from Swaziland. She notes that the lobolo for her grandmother was eleven cows; however,  on her wedding day her family gave her forty cows, which served as the foundation for the Shelembe family to be financially stable. \u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eShe clarifies that her father-in-law and husband were responsible for naming her children, who are Sehlulabanye, Welani, Nkosinathi, Mbongwa, Makitaza, and Khayelihle. Zondi recounts that traditionally, a husband would not give his wife money until the birth of their third child, which meant that all purchases, from food to toiletries, were the husband's responsibility. She also mentions that her husband was well-educated and held a stable job. As a housewife, she took up knitting as a means of generating income, initially selling gloves and jerseys, and later expanding to ZCC church ruffs. Zondi explains that the profits from her sales enabled her to purchase a cow for R9.00, while her husband acquired his for R8.00. She states that this is how they eventually amassed a significant number of cattle together. Furthermore, she shares that they have utilized these cattle in various traditional ceremonies and rituals. In her discussions with her husband, she often expresses that if he were to pass away, she would not remarry or engage with another man. Conversely, she tells him that if she were to die first, he could seek another wife after a month following her burial.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eZondi explains that in the past, before a girl entered into marriage, she was educated about the history of her in-laws, including their elder members, and the expected behaviour she should exhibit as a new bride. She emphasizes that in Zulu culture, praisenames signify the names of the family's ancestors. As a result, she chooses not to mention all the praisenames, instead referring to Zondi, Gagashi, and Nongadla, since Nondaba is an ancestor's name that was later given to her father-in-law, making its use by her inappropriate. Zondi also discusses the difficulties of conveying this knowledge to the younger generation, who often perceive themselves as more educated and, as born-again Christians, do not follow the traditional customs that their families have historically practiced. She credits her longevity to her faith in God, her respect for all people, including her in-laws, and her careful dietary choices. For breakfast, she usually has homemade porridge and Weet-bix, while her meals between lunch and dinner include fruits, yoghurts, amasi, and traditional foods such as dry pap (uphuthu), beans, sweet potatoes, Colocasia esculenta (amadumbe), and a combination of dry pap and beans (isigwaqane).\u003c/p\u003e"]}},{"label":{"en":["Date"]},"value":{"en":["2023-03-13"]}},{"label":{"en":["Specific Location"]},"value":{"en":["Tweedie"]}},{"label":{"en":["Extended Locations"]},"value":{"en":["Howick - uMngeni Local Municipality - KwaZulu-Natal - South Africa"]}},{"label":{"en":["Duration "]},"value":{"en":["03:53:56"]}},{"label":{"en":["Contributors"]},"value":{"en":["Florence Zondi (Interviewee)","Muziwandile Hadebe (Interviewer)","Reinhardt Hartzenberg (Field Technician)"]}},{"label":{"en":["Interviewee Information"]},"value":{"en":["Florence Zondi (Name)","1924-03-13 (Date of Birth)","Zulu (Ethnicity)","Female (Gender)","Pensioner (Occupation)"]}},{"label":{"en":["Repository"]},"value":{"en":["Audio-Visual Repository"]}},{"label":{"en":["Language"]},"value":{"en":["IsiZulu (Primary)"]}},{"label":{"en":["Preferred Citation"]},"value":{"en":["\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(Reference code) \u003c/strong\u003eKwaZulu-Natal Department Sport, Arts and Culture - KwaZulu-Natal Archives and Records Service; Oral History Unit\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c/p\u003e"]}},{"label":{"en":["Source URL"]},"value":{"en":["https://www.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572"]}},{"label":{"en":["Access Restrictions"]},"value":{"en":["This material is open for public access and research"]}},{"label":{"en":["Embargo Date"]},"value":{"en":["N/A"]}},{"label":{"en":["Format"]},"value":{"en":["MPEG-4 (Base Media / Version 2) - extension: .mp4 - ISO/IEC 14496-14 -Video Compression Standard: HEVC (H265) - Frames: 25fps - 16:9 - 8-bit - Compression Mode: Lossy - 854x480 pixels (Public Access - Format)","AVCHD - extension: .MPT - Frame rate: 25fps - 16:9 - Compression Mode: Lossy - 1920 x 1080 pixels (Original Media - Format)","ProRes422 - extension: .MOV - Frame rate: 25fps - 16:9 - 8-bit - Compression Mode: Lossy - 1920 x 1080 pixels (Video Archive Version - Format)"]}},{"label":{"en":["Primary Media Type"]},"value":{"en":["Video"]}},{"label":{"en":["Genre"]},"value":{"en":["Oral Histories"]}},{"label":{"en":["Conditions governing access"]},"value":{"en":["\u003cp\u003eCollection is open for research.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c/p\u003e"]}},{"label":{"en":["Condition governing reproduction"]},"value":{"en":["COPIES FOR PRIVATE STUDY: Subject to copyright, conditions imposed by owners and protecting the documents, digital copies can be made.

It can also involve preparing the favourite meals of deceased relatives, placing them on an altar overnight without any formal rituals, and sharing them with family the following day.","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Synopsis"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=6428.0,6747.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/19","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Tradition and Religion","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Traditional practices","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Christianity","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Modernity","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=6428.0,6747.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/20","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Traditional Practices for Twins","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Title"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=6748.0,7233.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/21","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"In the context of traditional customs, Zondi states that when a couple has a child prior to marriage, the woman's family is required to sacrifice a goat for that child, while the father's family must also present a goat to formally introduce the child to the ancestors. She notes that the requirements vary slightly if the child is born within a marriage; in such cases, a ceremony known as imbeleko is performed, and additional rituals are necessary on the mother's side for the firstborn. Zondi further emphasizes that these traditional practices also apply to twins. However, if the twins are of different genders, the rituals will depend on which twin was born first. If the firstborn is a girl, a female goat will be used, and it must be communicated to the ancestors that both twins will be represented by a single animal. Regarding the treatment of twins, she mentions that if the umemulo ceremony is conducted for the female twin, the male twin will only receive a sprinkling of goat bile, with no further rituals performed for him.","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Synopsis"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=6748.0,7233.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/22","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Childbirth","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Imbeko ceremony","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"umemulo","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"death","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=6748.0,7233.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/23","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Changes in the Society","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Title"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=7234.0,9770.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/24","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Zondi recounts that in ancient times, individuals who possessed ancestral spirits received guidance through dreams and visions regarding the location of their initiation.

Regarding her perspective on the state of the nation, Zondi asserts that the country has financial resources; however, those in positions of power are exploiting these resources for personal gain, resulting in a lack of focus on service delivery. Furthermore, Zondi conveys a message to the youth, emphasizing the importance of respect, regardless of one's level of education or wealth. She reflects on her own experience, noting that she never spoke back to her husband until his passing in 1994. Additionally, she strongly opposes drug use among the youth and condemns the rise of Gender-Based Violence.","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Synopsis"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=7234.0,9770.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/25","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Spiritual calling","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"fake Sangomas","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"corruption","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=7234.0,9770.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/26","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"The secret to a long life ","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Title"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=9771.0,13971.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/27","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Zondi articulates that in earlier times, prior to a girl's marriage, she received education regarding the history of her in-laws, including their senior members, and the appropriate conduct expected of her as a new bride.

Consequently, she refrains from mentioning all the praisenames, opting instead to refer to Zondi, Gagashi, and Nongadla, as Nondaba is the name of an ancestor that was subsequently assigned to her father-in-law, thus rendering it inappropriate for her to use. Zondi further elaborates on the challenges of imparting this knowledge to the younger generation, who often believe they possess superior education and, as born-again Christians, do not adhere to the traditional practices that have historically been observed by their family. She attributes her longevity to her faith in God, her respect for all individuals, including her in-laws, and her careful selection of food. For breakfast, she typically consumes homemade porridge and Weetabix, while her meals between lunch and dinner consist of fruits, yogurts, amasi, and traditional dishes such as dry pap (uphuthu), beans, sweet potatoes, Colocasia esculenta (amadumbe), and a mixture of dry pap and beans (isigwaqane).","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Synopsis"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=9771.0,13971.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/28","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Respect","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Religion","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"healthy eating","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Keywords"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=9771.0,13971.0"},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646/index/85997/annotation/29","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Theme Song","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Title"]}}],"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180646#t=13972.0,14036.0"}]}]},{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180645","type":"Canvas","label":{"en":["Media File 2 of 2 - 20230313_Florence_Zondi_Audio_80Kbps.mp3"]},"duration":14036.87184,"width":640,"height":360,"thumbnail":[{"id":"https://d9jk7wjtjpu5g.cloudfront.net/collection_resource_files/thumbnails/000/180/645/small/Audio_logo_1000px.png?1678806010","type":"Image","format":"image/png"}],"items":[{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180645/content/1","type":"AnnotationPage","items":[{"id":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180645/content/2/annotation/1","type":"Annotation","motivation":"painting","body":{"id":"https://aviary-p-kzndsac.s3.wasabisys.com/collection_resource_files/resource_files/000/180/645/original/20230313_Florence_Zondi_Audio_80Kbps.mp3?1678805356","type":"Audio","format":"audio/mpeg","duration":14036.87184,"width":640,"height":360},"target":"https://av.kznarchives.gov.za/collections/2203/collection_resources/87572/file/180645","metadata":[]}]}],"annotations":[]}]}
