Press release about the release of documents by the Stop the Apartheid Rugby Tour (SART) coalition showing that a South African, Louis Luyt, a key figure in the South African Ministry of Information information scandal, gave the Eastern Ruby Football Union (ERFU) $25,000 in December 1981. Later that month the ERFU invited the South African Springboks rugby team to the U.S. in September/October 1981. SART was formed to oppose the tour.
Used by permission of Africa Action, successor to the American Committee on Africa (ACOA), and Richard Lapchick, founder of the American Coordinating Committee for Equality in Sport and Society (ACCESS). Both ACOA and ACCESS were active in Stop the Apartheid Rugby Tour.
