Sitting in an uncatalogued box at the Gandhi-Luthuli Documentation Centre in Durban, South Africa, is a file labelled “Memorabilia from my walls at 4 Glenariff, Umbilo Road, Durban… July 2003.” Containing photographs, newspaper clippings, articles, and drawings, each of these images and texts, “[r]emoved to paint my walls,” represents a facet of the personal history and political activism of Phyllis Naidoo (1928-2013). There is an obituary and picture of Phyllis together with Abdul Khalek Mahomed Docrat, leading political activist in the Natal Indian Congress and a fellow comrade in the Durban underground struggle; a newspaper photograph of struggle stalwart Walter Sisulu together with Nelson Mandela; an article on imprisoned First Nation's activist, Leonard Pelter, calling for a new society where we “share the wealth with the poor and needy;” a news clipping on US civil rights activist Angela Davis's visit to Durban for the Global March Against Racism in September 2001; and a drawing of an imposing stone eagle sculpture found at the ruins of Great Zimbabwe, referring to Phyllis's time in exile in that country. Amongst this collection is also a map of India, an historic photograph of a group of indentured Indians disembarking at the Durban harbour, and a dust jacket of Phyllis's book Footprints in Grey Street.
