apartheid is a crime against humanity it has to end

Black and white poster advertising events at Duke University. Overlapping the bottom of a black map of Africa is a large rectangular drawing of a person sitting in a prison cell, with their face in their hands. Across the poster behind the cell is a dense block of text in a small font describing oppressive conditions in South Africa. This block of text is broken into by the last word in the phrase, “apartheid is a crime against humanity – it has to end.” The events that are advertised at the top of the poster are a showing of the film "Last Grave at Dimbaza," a teach-in on Human Rights in South Africa, and a talk by South African exile Dennis Brutus on "The Struggle for Liberation in South Africa." Size: Probably 8 1/2 x 14 inches.
