Pan Africanist Movement

The Pan Africanist Movement is a minor South African political party founded by Thami ka Plaatjie and others from a faction in the Pan Africanist Congress. After a year of in-fighting between supporters of Ka Plaatjie and PAC president Letlapa Mphahlele, the high court ruled that ka Plaatjie's faction could not organise under the name or colours of the Pan Africanist Congress, and a new party was formed to accommodate the Ka Plaatjie faction.^[1]
