What factors contributed to the unbanning of resistance organizations and the release of Nelson Mandela
Answers
Answer:
Friday 2 February 1990 was a hot day in Cape Town, the summer temperature raised by thousands of political activists marching through the city demanding change.
Their presence demonstrated once again that the regime had failed to silence the voices of those calling for the end of apartheid.
Since the banning of the African National Congress (ANC) and the Pan Africanist Congress (PAC) in 1960 and the jailing of political leaders, new organisations and new leaders had sprung up in their place.
Most of those thronging the streets of Cape Town in protest that day had experienced the brutality of apartheid. They would continue to struggle against the system of racial oppression and vowed that imprisonment, killings, torture and mass detention would not deter them.
By the time they reached the city centre, word had reached the leaders addressing them from a flatbed truck that a few streets away in Parliament President FW de Klerk had unbanned the ANC, PAC and other organisations.
