The document lists written resources and actions to take about southern Africa provided by an active member of Michigan League Coalition for Human Rights (MCHR). Recommended books include "Black and Reformed: Apartheid, Liberation and the Calvinist Tradition" and "The Finger of God: Sermons on Faith and Responsibility" by Allan Boesak, "The Discarded People" by Desmond Tutu, and "Jesus before Christianity" by Albert Nolan. Recommended actions include protesting to the South African Embassy about the government-ordered investigation of Rev. Boesak's activities and sending letters of support to Rev. Boesak care of the South African Council of Churches (SACC). Also, a letter of support can be sent to Archbishop Dennis Hurley care of The South African Catholic Bishops' Conference concerning his upcoming trial regarding findings by the S.A. Catholic Bishops' investigation team about atrocities in Namibia. The REPORT ON NAMIBIA, Series: Pastoral Action #27 confirms the views of the SACC and the British Council of Churches. It also calls for implementing UN Security Council Resolution 435 which would result in a cease-fire and withdrawal of South African Security Forces, as well as holding elections under UN auspices. Other recommended resources are from the Washington Office on Africa, Mission Intercom, the U.S. Catholic Mission Association, the American Committee on Africa (ACOA), The Africa Fund, and Africa News.
