'South Africa has been built by the blood, sweat and broken bodes of the oppressed and exploited black workers. It is a well-known fact that the blacks carry the economy of this country on their shoulders. 

All the sky-scrapers, super highways, etc., are built out of our undistributed wages. It is because of these facts that the students realise that in any labour struggle, the power for changes lies with the workers.'
