South African singing legend Miriam Makeba has died aged 76, after being taken ill in Italy.

She had just taken part in a concert near the southern town of Caserta and died of a heart attack.

Makeba, known as "Mama Africa", spent more than 30 years in exile after lending her support to the anti-apartheid struggle.

She appeared on Paul Simon's Graceland tour in 1987 and in 1992 had a leading role in the film Sarafina!

Passport revoked

Makeba, was born in Johannesburg on 4 March 1932 and was a leading symbol in the struggle against apartheid.[/b]

Ik ben hier verdrietig om. Ze had zo veel invloed op racisme en zo en die soort dingen dat. Ze was heel belangrijk in de strijd voor apartheid.

Laten we allmaal even stilstaan voor hoe ze belangrijk was voor dit leven in deze tijd in zuid afrika (waar de oorspring van de mens is)
