Description

This letter accompanied draft language for a City Council resolution to "VOTE FOR THE PEOPLE, KEEP THE PRESSURE ON APARTHEID SOUTH AFRICA DAY" in response to The Africa Fund's request that City Councils reaffirm their commitment to keeping and intensifying economic sanctions against the apartheid South African regime. The letter refers to Seattle Mayor Norm Rice having organized the endorsement by other mayors at the National Conference of Mayors annual meeting of an earlier resolution honoring Nelson Mandela by promising to keep economic pressure on the regime.
