Mayihlome News
Mayihlome News is an online political journal published from South Africa. Mayihlome News was launched in 2009, on a free WordPress platform with Mmbara Hulisani Kevin as Editor in Chief. On 16 February 2015, Mayihlome News moved from the free WordPress platform to a self-hosted platform and registered a unique domain. Mayihlome News also rebranded introducing the Man in the Green Blanket in its branding in honour of the leader of the Marikana Miners who were massacred by South African Police Service on 16 August 2012. A news section on Mayihlome News which was aimed at encouraging community journalism was discontinued due to lack of consistent content. Articles published on Mayihlome News are submitted by "students, workers, struggle veterans, revolutionary academics, historians, cultural activists, social activists and other constituencies involved in the struggle for the emancipation of mankind from the yoke of capitalism in all its forms".
Mayihlome News was launched at the Inaugural Mayihlome Lecture at Hotel 224 in Pretoria, South Africa, on 30 May 2009. The lecture was organized by the Pan Africanist Youth Congress, a youth wing of the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania, at the time led by the current editor of Mayihlome News, Mmbara Hulisani Kevin. The Keynote address for the lecture was delivered by the former Pan Africanist Congress of Azania leader Philip Kgosana, popularly known for leading a 30 000 men march in Cape Town at the age of 23 on 30 March 1960. The main lecture was delivered by the former Pan Africanist Youth Congress President, Matome Mashao.
Mayihlome News was launched on the popular WordPress platform and used the blogging capabilities of the platform to publish feature articles whereas news articles and current affairs articles were published in pages format.
Following the launch Mayihlome News published its first feature article titled "The Epic Story of June 16 Uprising" on 12 June 2009. The article sought to provide facts regarding the 16 June 1976 students protests and the fact that Pan Africanist Congress of Azania leaders led by Zephaniah Mothopeng were prosecuted for these uprising in secret trials known as the "Bethel Trial".
On 13 February 2010 Mayihlome News was invited and participated in the "I Publish What I Like" seminar in Johannesburg hosted by Khanya College and Ebukhosini Solutions in celebration of Africa Month 2010. Mayihlome News Editor Mmbara Hulisani Kevin was part of the panel discussions alongside other black South African publishers like Andile Mngxitama of Frank Talk and Rose Francis of African Perspectives Publishing.
On 8 April 2010 Mayihlome published what would be its last News Article under its News section titled "CHICKENS ARE COMING HOME TO ROOST" which was issued by the Pan Africanist Youth Congress President Linda Kwame Ndebele. The article followed the murder of AWB leader Eugene Terrenblanche who was 'hacked to death at home at home by workers'. The articled called for "rural farm workers to stand up and defend themselves against racists and oppressors like Terreblanche."
