December 1960 - NDP Holds First Historic Congress Congress
December 1960 - NDP Holds First Historic Congress Congress Delegates heard former NDP President Leopold Takawira tell the congress: Government manoeuvres to destroy a legitimate political party are cowardly. But wounded and battered, like Lord Nelson, the NDP limps to victory. In the sweltering heat of the tropical summer sun, a surging crowd comprising thousands of African men and women - all intent in their purpose talked in small groups. Now and then they paced to and from the pavement. (Photograph by Drum Photographer @ BAHA)
