Fall 1978?
This image was chosen from a contest organized by the American Committee on Africa (ACOA) to obtain original artwork for an Anti-Apartheid Poster Calendar produced in the fall of 1978. This image appeared on the page for the month of February 1979. The abstract drawing depicts an African man, woman, and child standing together. The drawing is in black and white, with small touches of red at the top of the head of each figure. The calendars were produced in cooperation with the United Nations Centre Against Apartheid.
Each uprising is more determined than the last. In Sharpeville we overcame the consequences of disobeying the law ... Soweto has been a lesson in overcoming fear of the gun. Robert Sobukwe, late President of Pan-Africanist Congress of Azania (South Africa)
