Fundraising mailing for The Africa Fund discusses the scheduled hanging of the Sharpeville 6, Theresa Ramashamola, Mojalefa Sefatsa, Reid Mokoena, Oupa Diniso, Duma Khumalo, and Francis Mokgesi, who were convicted of killing a local councilor after he opened fire on a group of demonstrators. Even the government admits that there is no evidence that any of the six ever even touched the councilor. The mailing asks people to send a telegram to President P.W. Botha. They are among 48 political prisoners awaiting execution on South Africa's death row. The mailing discusses the apartheid regime, a stay of execution, the "Unlock Apartheid's Jails" campaign, detentions, burnings, and torture.
