Umteteli wa Bantu

Umteteli wa Bantu (subtitled "Mouthpiece of the African People" also called "Mouthpiece of the Native People") was an English language weekly newspaper.

Established in May 1920 by the Chamber of Mines and the Native Recruiting Corporation (NRC) after the 1920 mineworkers strike, against the backdrop of increasing militancy by African workers and the influence of Abantu Batho, an African National Congress (ANC) newspaper. The newspaper lasted until 1956.
