The events of that fateful day would leave an indelible mark on the collective consciousness of South Africa and the world insofar as the human cost of oppression and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity, subjugation and persecution. In response to Sharpeville, on 26 March 1960, ANC president Chief Albert Luthuli announced a nationwide protest and stay-at-home for 28 March. He publicly burnt his pass in Pretoria and urged others to do the same. In Soweto, Nelson Mandela and Duma Nokwe burnt their passes before hundreds of people and photographers. Two days later, scores of people from around South Africa rioted in response to the massacre in Sharpeville.
