Answer:

African National Congress.

Step-by-step explanation:

The practice or system of Apartheid was one way the government of South Africa implemented to 'manage' the majority of black people. Though the whites are in minority, they wanted to stay superior. So, the practice of Apartheid gave them the 'scope' for authority, segregating the blacks from them.

The African National Congress, formerly known as the South African Native National Congress, was founded in 1912 by John Langalibalele Dube. The party's aim was to unite all the African people and bring them together as a united nation, irrespective of tribe or background. It later became the main party to oppose the Apartheid policy of the government. After a violent outcome of a peaceful protest, the South African government banned the party in April 1960. This ban was lifted in February 1990.
