{"value"=>"<p><span class=\"title\">BBC Six O'Clock News</span> coverage of Winnie addressing an estimated crowd of 30,000 Black people at a mass funeral service at the Mamelodi stadium in Pretoria, South Africa. The funeral was for twelve of the fifteen people killed by police on November 21, 1985, at a protest in Mamelodi against rent increases and other grievances. Winnie delivers a message of solidarity, breaking banning orders imposed by the South African apartheid government, which restricted an individual of their freedom to travel, gather, and speak publicly. Winnie said it was the first mass rally she addressed in twenty-five years. Broadcast on BBC, United Kingdom.</p>"}
