The mailing says repression and brutality of the apartheid government has been met by increasing resistance from the South African people; and that 1985 was also a landmark year in the U.S. anti-apartheid movement; due to your hard work, the state, local and university divestment movement and the Free South Africa Movement have precipitated a dramatic increase in media attention and national awareness of the injustices of apartheid and of U.S. foreign policy in Southern Africa. The mailing says by pushing for U.S. aid to UNITA, South Africa's allies within the administration and Congress hope to regain the ground they believe they have lost and are losing to the anti-apartheid movement; and discusses right wing attempts to give an East-West definition to the struggle for justice in Southern Africa. The mailing says U.S. support for UNITA is support for South Africa. The mailing asks people to send a letter to the Senator and Congressman expressing concern about recent proposals to aid UNITA rebels fighting the Angolan government. The mailing includes SAMPLE LETTER ON ANGOLA and a fact sheet on Angola by the Washington Office on Africa Educational Fund. • A War-Torn Economy • UNITA: The Politics of Opportunism • The South Africa-UNITA Connection • Regional Peace Initiatives
