Description

Copy of a letter to Steve Swift, Coordinator of the Anti-Apartheid Movement in Madison, Wisconsin. The letter expresses the Association of Concerned Africa Scholars' support for efforts to have Wisconsin join other states that have divested public funds from companies doing business in South Africa and commends the peaceful occupation of the capitol rotunda area that has encouraged many people to take a second look at U.S. policy that is encouraging and strengthening South Africa's apartheid system. The letter discusses the Sullivan Principles, the Krugerrand gold coin, economic sanctions, U.S. policy in Southern Africa, and Representative Marcia Coggs.
