May 1961 - Pietermaritzburg Conference - Father Plays

May 1961 - Pietermaritzburg Conference - Father Plays Nursemaid - The call at the conference is all for unity, but baby wanted variety. So papa takes her out for sake of peace. Fourteen hundred delegates from all over the South Africa went to Maritzburg, where they sounded a new and powerful call for unity. The odds were all against success, and yet the outcome was a triumph, an indication of a new spirit of resolve which has emerged among the African people. Few meetings can have been preceded by so many unfavourable omens as the All-In Africa Conference at Maritzburg. (Photograph by Drum Photographer BAHA)
