The Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (once known as the Pan Africanist Congress, abbreviated as the PAC), was a South African liberation movement, that is now a minor political party. It was founded in 1959 after a number of members broke away from the African National Congress (ANC) because they objected to the substitution of the 1949 Programme of Action with the Freedom Charter adopted in 1955. Robert Sobukwe was elected as the first president, at the founding conference held in April 1959 in Johannesburg.
