The Southern Africa Support Project (SASP) was organized in June 1978 in Washington D.C. as a community organization to do political, educational and fund-raising work for the liberation struggles in Zimbabwe, Namibia, and South Africa. It provided political and material assistance when possible to the people of the "Frontline States" (Mozambique, Angola, Zambia, Botswana, and Tanzania), each of which was hard-hit by military raids, economic and political sabotage by the white minority regime in South Africa. SASP also played a major role in mobilizing for the picketing and arrests at the South African Embassy in 1985-86 that were an important effort of the Free South Africa Movement.
