===[[African Mine Workers' Union]]=== |
|||
In 1941 a miners` conference was called by the [[Transvaal Provincial Committee]] of the [[African National Congress]]. The conference was supported by [[Paramount Chief]] of [[Zululand]] and trade unions.<ref> THE AFRICAN MINERS' STRIKE OF 1946 by M. P. Naicker http://www.anc.org.za/ancdocs/history/misc/miners.html</ref> |
|||
It was here that the African Mine Workers` Union came into being and elected a committee under the presidency of [[J. B. Marks]], who was also soon afet elected President of the Transvaal African National Congress. |
|||
==[[African Mine Workers' Strike]] == |
|||
The strike, by mine workers of [[Witwatersrand]] started on August 12, 1946 and lasted around 1 week. The strike was attacked by police and over the 1 week, at least 1,248 workers were wounded and at least 9 killed. |
|||
At first the union was not recognised by the Chamber of Mines but after sustained pressure for better wages and conditions, Prime Minister, Field Marshal Smuts, announced some piecemeal increases improvements in conditions while at the same time issuing War Measure No. 1425 - banning gatherings of more than twenty people on mining property without permission. |
|||
Despite union oficials being arrested in 1944 at a meeting in Witwatersrand and in Springs a conference was held in May 1946 which decided to approach the governemnt with demands for a ten shillings a day wage and other improvements - or to take strike action. |
|||
In August 1946 an open air conference was held in Newtown Market Square as no hall where Africans could hold meetings was big enough to accommodate those present and the decision to strike was taken. |
|||
==Bloody Tuesday== |
|||
The police attacked the workers with batons, bayonets and gunfire outside the mines and in the mines when forced to work. |
|||
Police brutality reaced a bloody climax on a peaceful march from the East Rand to Johannesburg on Tuesday, 13 August. Police opened fire on the procession and a number of workers were killed. |
|||
This lead to the [[Transvaal Council of Non-European Trade Unions]] (CONETU) calling a general strike in Johannesburg on Wednesday, 14 August. CONETU called a meeting at Newtown Market Square the next day which was banned by the Riotous Assemblies Act. This meeting was also attacked by police with guns and bayonets. |
|||
During the week workers and leaders of the ANC, the Communist Party, the Indian and Coloured Congresses and the trade unions were arrested, tried, imprisoned and deported. |
|||
-------------------------------------- |
|||
Dr. [[Alfred Bitini Xuma]], President-General of the African National Congress, joined a delegation of the [[South African Indian Congress]] (SAIC) sent to the 1946 session of the [[United Nations General Assembly]] when the question of the treatment of Indians in South Africa was raised by the Government of India. He, together with the SAIC representatives - H. A. Naidoo and [[Sorabjee Rustomjee]] - and Senator H. M. Basner, a progressive white "Native Representative" in the South African Senate, used the occasion to appraise Member States of the United Nations of the strike of the African miners and other aspects of the struggle for equality in South Africa. |
|||
Dealing with this visit the ANC, at its annual conference from December 14 to 17, 1946, passed the following resolution: |
|||
"Congress congratulates the delegates of India, China and the Soviet Union and all other countries who championed the cause of democratic rights for the oppressed non-European majority in South Africa, and pays tribute to those South Africans present in America, particularly Dr. A. B. Xuma, Messrs. H. A. Naidoo, Sorabjee Rustomjee and Senator H. M. Basner, for enabling delegates to the United Nations to obtain first-hand information and data which provided the nations of the world with reasonable grounds for passing a deserving judgment against the South African policy of white domination. |
|||
"Conference desires to make special mention of the Council for African Affairs for its noble efforts to defend fundamental human rights..."(9) |
|||
When the Native Representative Council adjourned, the Prime Minister, Field Marshal Smuts, met members of the Council and outlined new proposals to end the deadlock. Among his proposals was "a form of recognition" for African trade unions. However, he made it clear that such recognition would not include African mine workers: their affairs would be dealt with by an Inspectorate functioning under the Department of Native Affairs. |
|||
After considering this proposal, the Councillors stated: |
|||
"It is asking for too much to expect the African people to believe that this new Inspectorate, whatever the grade of officers appointed, will make a better job of protecting the interests of the mine workers than the Inspectorate has done in the past. The African mine workers demand the right to protect themselves through the medium of their own recognised and registered organisations." (10) |
|||
In a statement on May 11, 1947, on the Council's decision to adjourn, Dr. A.B. Xuma reiterated the demand of the ANC for "recognition of African trade unions under the Industrial Conciliation Act and adequate wages for African workers, including mine workers". (11) |
|||
The brave miners of 1946 gave birth to the ANC Youth League's Programme of Action adopted in 1949; they were the forerunners of the freedom strikers of May 1, 1950, against the [[Suppression of Communism Act]], and the tens of thousands who joined the 26 June nation-wide protest strike that followed the killing of sixteen people during the May Day strike. They gave the impetus for the 1952 Campaign of Defiance of Unjust Laws when thousands of African, Indian and Coloured people went to jail; they inspired the mood that led to the upsurge in 1960 and to the emergence of [[Umkhonto we Sizwe]] ([[Spear of the Nation]]) - the military wing of the African National Congress. |

Nice work cleaning up the page but why delete 'deaths in detention' and Ukraine sections? I've reverted the deletions for now. [[User:Paki.tv|Paki.tv]] 00:34, 28 August 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:Because it is unreferenced. I just hate unreferenced material - reliability is Wikipedia's biggest criticism, and [[WP:RS]] is one way to fix that. Better a small amount of quality, than huge amounts of potential rubbish. If it is really notable, I am sure a reference isn't hard to find.
