The newsletter says, since 1977, when the U.N. Security Council imposed a mandatory arms embargo against South Africa, the U.S. has not taken any significant steps to force the regime towards change. The Senate has voted to lift the ban on aid to South African-backed rebels in Angola; on the Namibia issue, the U.S. has kowtowed to the South African line and refused to encourage the country's independence until Cuban troops have withdrawn from Angola and Namibia. The newsletter discusses the United Nations Decade for Women meeting in Kenya, P.W. Botha, constructive engagement, Black townships, police, military, warrantless searches, civil disobedience, and Maureen Reagan.
