The mailing to anti-apartheid activists in the United States consists of a press release of the Human Rights Commission, a South African non-governmental organization, about a hunger strike at Diepkloof Prison. The press release says many of these detainees are approaching one thousand days in detention with no end in sight. They have sent numerous memoranda and letters to the Ministers of Law and Order and Justice and even to the State President, setting out their grievances and stating why they believe their detention to be fundamentally unjust.
