Abstract: | This article traces in brief the complex character of Pan-African development and the influence it has had on black political thought in South Africa, especially since Ghana's independence in 1957. The author strives to identify basic differences that exist between the Pan-Africanist Congress and the African National Congress in their approach and struggle for the liberation of South Africa. He also takes account of recent statements on Southern Africa made at the Freiburg Conference in West Germany, and comes to the conclusion that although strongly divided and weakly supported the PAC and ANC must not be underestimated in their drive towards the liberation of South Africa.
