About Martyr's Day in Malawi
Politics , Civil Rights
Africa
Ends: Mar 03, 2023
DESCRIPTION:
On March 3, 1959, in the African nation of Nyasaland (now Malawi), 1300 persons associated with the Nyasaland African Congress (elected rather than appointed representatives) were rounded up and arrested by the British colonial governor Sir Robert Armitage. The governor declared a national emergency for the next 15 months. Rioting ensued, the people held strikes, and many were injured or killed. The catalyst was a slew of referendums targeted at the agricultural industry, which favored landowners and hurt workers and represented a political federation between Nyasaland and Rhodesia that the people did not want.
Like many African nations in the mid-twentieth century, Nyasaland was ready to shed its colonial rule and self-govern. This desire led to an increasing number of party members becoming bolder and more insistent, which didn't sit well with the rulers. March 3 is seen as the beginning of the end of colonial rule and is celebrated as Martyr's Day in Malawi to honor those who gave their lives or freedom for the nation's future.
