“Shortly after the train left the Sandton station I was approached by a black male, well spoken and dressed in a blue checked shirt and jeans. He asked me if he could talk to me for two minutes and sat down,” she recalled.
The woman explained that the man told her that he was an activist for violence against women and children and that he had a Facebook page that was aimed to bring awareness as to how much violence there is in South Africa.
The man went on to say he was writing the name of the Facebook page on the inside of people’s forearm and taking a picture of the writing. He said he wanted to make a collage with the pictures. “I agreed to let him write the name of the Facebook page on my arm and take a picture of it. He wrote something on my arm (I do not remember exactly what) and took a photo of my arm (with my packed muffins in the background).”
