Rosina Sedibane Modiba – an athlete who achieved superstar status, whose story has not been told for more than forty years.
As a young girl, she ran faster than all the herders – even the boys – when they were chasing cows in the village.
Her father, Johannes, chased rabbits, which he caught with his own hands…
Running was in the Sedibane blood, including Rosina’s.
But for a black girl child in apartheid South Africa, life was not going to be easy.
Yet Rosina grew up to be a record-breaking athlete in the 1970s.
