Anti-Apartheid Movement; End Loans to Southern Africa
London, United Kingdom
Second half of the 1980s
By the 1980s South Africa was heavily dependent on loans from US and British banks. After the apartheid government declared a moratorium on the repayment of its foreign loans in 1985, the Anti-Apartheid Movement (AAM) and End Loans to Southern Africa (ELTSA) stepped up their campaign to stop the banks rescheduling South Africa's debt.
British banks are allowing South Africa to keep billions of dollars which they should be demanding back. Protest against the banks involved: NatWest, Barclays, Standard Charter. Apartheid costs - don't let British banks foot the bill. No debt rescheduling!
