Ukuphumula ngokuthula, Albert Lutuli.  The first African to receive the Nobel Peace Prize (and first recipient from somewhere other than Europe or the Americas), Lutuli was a staunch anti-apartheid leader and elected president of the African National Congress (in which role, he met with Senator RFK during his visit to South Africa in 1966).  Mvumbi died on this date in 1967 at the age of 69 (or thereabouts), long before apartheid was finally dismantled in 1991.

Lutuli: Let’s RISE!

Gov: Nah

Lutili: *Banned to isolation*

Lutuli: *Banned from publishing*

Lutuli: *Banned from gatherings*

Gov: 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

.

Lutuli was banned from gatherings due to “inciting hatred between racial groups” as his number of followers grew both in Africans and Afrikaans. He was also restrained to a 15 mile radius for his home- that being lifted and inplaced on multiple occasions- and while he grew older on a select few by the police were actually able to see him. He ended up dying due to being hit by a train- something many people find suspicious

[incorrect-luthili-quotes]

Lutuli: *looking at South Africa* So she’s a bit of a fixer upper- that’s a minor thing

Natives Representative Council: *at every organization Luthuli is apart of* Her cloak engagement is a flex arrangement

Luthuli: 👀And by the way- I don’t need no ring

.

In 1945, Lutili began his shift into the political field by joining ANC. After 1946 when police were crushing a strike of African miners at the cost of eight lives and nearly a thousand injured, Lutuli started protesting and left the goverment council in order to continue protesting. He toured the United states in 1948 talking about what’s going on in South Africa and talked to Christians about the test of faith in Africa with the racial discrimination.

Anc: *Sad*

Luthuli: *Burning Pass* What’s wrong babe?

.

While president of the ANC, Albert Luthuli witnissed the Sharpeville Massacer where over 250 Africans demostrating were wounded or killed in 1960. Luthuli called for a national mourning. He paid a fine for burning his pass for the cause- being too ill to actualy serve the police sentence. This event sparked a lot more anger in the African community and the protests became more common. Throughout it all though, Luthuli remained on the side of non-violence.

[incorrect-luthili-quotes]

Gov: wait wait wait stop stop this doesn’t make sense. this don’t make any sense- wait. Hol up. who are you?

Communism: *pointing @ Lutuli* I am you

Lutuli: What- I am Me

Communism: No sir you are you

Lutuli: Wait-

Gove: I dunno

Communism: 2 is 2.

.

December 1956 Luthuli and 155 others were taken and charged with high treason but the long trial was unable to prove that he was working with the communist regiem. The way Lutuli held himself though gave people who were able- a better glimpse of what was happening. Impressing many international bodies.
