Report produced for the Coalition for the Liberation of Southern Africa about American Committee on Africa (ACOA) activities on Angola after the escalation of U.S. involvement. The report says ACOA responded through articles, advertisements, press conferences, radio interviews, speaking engagements, and congressional testimony to the administration's portrayal of the issues. ACOA convened a coalition of peace organizations to mobilize opposition to U.S. intervention and assisted with plans for Washington activities in January. The report discusses the Op-Ed article by George Houser which appeared in the New York Times. The report says ACOA has continued efforts around Angola growing out of the Havana seminar, organizing people to sign a statement recognizing the People's Republic of Angola, distributing educational materials, and calling for action in response to the threatened veto of Angola's membership in the United Nations.
