The lead-up to the 1994 democratic elections in South Africa was fraught with danger for those pushing for change. Many lost their lives as violence was often used to stifle the voices calling for that change. On the 7th of September 1992, 28 protesters and one Ciskei Defence Force soldier paid the ultimate price, when a mass march to the capital of the former Ciskei homeland, Bhisho, ended in death and bloodshed. More than 200 people were injured. The soldiers of the former Ciskei opened fire on thousands of protesters, lead by Cyril Ramaphosa, Steve Tshwete and Ronnie Kasrils under the ANC banner. They were calling for the integration of the Ciskei, under the leadership of Oupa Gqozo, into South Africa.
