Leaflet compares the policies of the Episcopal Church and Virginia Theological Seminary (VTS) on divestment. The General Convention of the Episcopal Church in 1985 called for divestment of all holdings in companies doing business in South Africa and Namibia, while VTS continues to invest in companies active in southern Africa. The leaflet, issued as part of a campaign to get the Seminary to divest, discusses an economic boycott of Mobil and other oil companies, Rev. Leon Sullivan, the Sullivan Principles, apartheid, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, corporate responsibility, and sanctions.
