The South Coast Herald Newspaper has reported that Penny Sparrow, who was known for her racism conviction, has passed away. She died from lung cancer.
The former KwaZulu-Natal estate agent was charged and convicted with racism after she shared a post on Facebook in which she compared black people at the beach to monkeys. Magistrate Vincent Hlatshway handed Sparrow a R5,000 fine or 12 months imprisonment.
