In 1906, the British colony of Natal imposed a poll tax that sparked a Zulu uprising led by Chief Bambatha kaMancinza. This episode explores the roots of the rebellion in land dispossession and labour coercion, the key battles at Mpanza Valley and the Nkandla forest, and the brutal British counterinsurgency that killed thousands of Zulu. We also examine the role of Dinuzulu kaCetshwayo, the Zulu king who was tried for treason, and how the rebellion fits into longer patterns of resistance against colonial rule in South Africa.
