FrankChikane, General Secretary of the 15-million member South African Council of Churches. This historic consultation was organized by the Religious Action Network (RAN), a project of the American Committee on Africa (ACOA). Its purpose was to consult with South African religious and political leaders about the dramatic events that have taken place in the country over the past months. The delegation arrived in Johannesburg just after Easter and met with a cross- section of people-from Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Tutu and Rev. Chikane to trade union leaders and human rights activists. They saw (continued on page 2) 198 Broadway Two RAN founding members, Canon Frederick B. Williams and Rev. M.

Wherever they went, they were welcomed and briefed by local activists. In his greeting Rev. Chikane said, "We don't just expect your support in our struggle for freedom. We expect your full participation. Help us destroy apartheid completely and not try to make it livable. Fight for more sanctions and don't stop pressuring Pretoria." Some highlights of a packed agenda: * A meeting with Nelson Mandela, Deputy-President of the African National Congress, took place at his Orlando West home. Mr. Mandela told the RAN Delegation: "I want you to continue putting pressure on the Pretoria regime. Continue to fight for more sanctions. It is because of your continued pressures that I am here to talk to you. Apartheid is alive and well. Nothing much has changed. I am home but many of * my friends and comrades are still in jail." o In Pretoria the delegation was taken to the Central Prison, (D where 300 Black South Africans await execution on death W row, many for resisting apartheid. T The delegation met with the entire executive of the internal ANC leadership, led by Mr. Walter Sisulu, at its newly opened office in Johannesburg. They presented Mr. Sisulu with copies of sanctions legislation passed by their respective cities. * In Winterveld, a reservation near Johannesburg, they met with women and children who are legally separated for months at a time from their husbands, brothers and fathers, who work as migrant workers just hours away from home. The only child care center for a forced settlement area of more than 300,000 people is under constant harassment by the security police. Winterveld residents told the delegation that the police frequently detain staff members in an effort to shut the facility down. - Archbishop Tutu joined the delegation for lunch in a Soweto church that has become the center for activists working in the area. He later hosted a reception at his Soweto home.

" In Cape Town, each member of the delegation was invited to preach in a church on Sunday morning and join the congregation and community members in ecumenical consultation meetings afterwards. " There was a trip to the notorious Crossroads squatter camp, where thousands of people live illegally in makeshift housing. Sanitation and living conditions are appalling and residents are constantly subjected to brutal police raids. There is no doubt that Crossroads is hell on earth. Of the many experiences the delegation had, some of the most unforgettable were their meetings with local activists: Join the VOTE Campaign for strnger sanctions against apartheid. Contact The Africa Fund, 198 Broadway, New York, MY 10038 (2121 962-1210 " The young fearless preachers in Cape Town, including one dragged off his pulpit by the police during a Sunday morning worship service and taken away to jail, " The Human Rights Commission, which has the unenviable task of documenting the human rights abuses of apartheid when so many want to proclaim the arrival of freedom, * People like Sister Bernard Ncube and Father Smangaliso Mkhatshwa of the Institute for Contextual Theology, who have been detained without trial, tortured and charged with treason for doing their church work, " Dr. Tim Wilson of Alexandra Clinic, the only medical facility for 250,000 people. The clinic has continued to operate despite a bombing and constant harassment of the security police. Everywhere the delegation went they found strong support for sanctions. When the RAN Delegation told people about the U.S. End Apartheid Vote For the People Carfipaign launched by The Africa Fund in New York to win stronger sanctions, many South African people also wanted to vote. Rev. Chikane said, "1 am ready to sign my ballot and everyone at SACC will vote too. We want people in America to knowwe demand democracy and sanctions too." NEW RAN COORDINATOR Aleah Bacquie joined the Religious Action Network as Coordinator in April. She was born in Jamaica, New York and earned a degree from Cornell University majoring in Government and Africana Studies. "1 became attracted to RAN because of the unique experience I had growing up in New York. I attended different religious schools operated by Protestants, Catholics, Jews and Quakers. As a result, I learned about the power and value of working for a common goal with and within various groups.

    THE GORDIAN KNOT: APARTHEID & THE UNMAKING OF THE LIBERAL WORLD ORDER, 1960-1970 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Ryan Irwin, B.A., M.A. History ***** The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Peter Hahn Professor Robert McMahon Professor Kevin Boyle Professor Martha van Wyk © 2010 by Ryan Irwin All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the apartheid debate from an international perspective. Positioned at the methodological intersection of intellectual and diplomatic history, it examines how, where, and why African nationalists, Afrikaner nationalists, and American liberals contested South Africa’s place in the global community in the 1960s. It uses this fight to explore the contradictions of international politics in the decade after second-wave decolonization. The apartheid debate was never at the center of global affairs in this period, but it rallied international opinions in ways that attached particular meanings to concepts of development, order, justice, and freedom. As such, the debate about South Africa provides a microcosm of the larger postcolonial moment, exposing the deep-seated differences between politicians and policymakers in the First and Third Worlds, as well as the paradoxical nature of change in the late twentieth century. This dissertation tells three interlocking stories. First, it charts the rise and fall of African nationalism. For a brief yet important moment in the early and mid-1960s, African nationalists felt genuinely that they could remake global norms in Africa’s image and abolish the ideology of white supremacy through U.N.

  • Struggle for Liberation in South Africa and International Solidarity A
    STRUGGLE FOR LIBERATION IN SOUTH AFRICA AND INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY A Selection of Papers Published by the United Nations Centre against Apartheid Edited by E. S. Reddy Senior Fellow, United Nations Institute for Training and Research STERLING PUBLISHERS PRIVATE LIMITED NEW DELHI 1992 INTRODUCTION One of the essential contributions of the United Nations in the international campaign against apartheid in South Africa has been the preparation and dissemination of objective information on the inhumanity of apartheid, the long struggle of the oppressed people for their legitimate rights and the development of the international campaign against apartheid. For this purpose, the United Nations established a Unit on Apartheid in 1967, renamed Centre against Apartheid in 1976. I have had the privilege of directing the Unit and the Centre until my retirement from the United Nations Secretariat at the beginning of 1985. The Unit on Apartheid and the Centre against Apartheid obtained papers from leaders of the liberation movement and scholars, as well as eminent public figures associated with the international anti-apartheid movements. A selection of these papers are reproduced in this volume, especially those dealing with episodes in the struggle for liberation; the role of women, students, churches and the anti-apartheid movements in the resistance to racism; and the wider significance of the struggle in South Africa. I hope that these papers will be of value to scholars interested in the history of the liberation movement in South Africa and the evolution of United Nations as a force against racism. The papers were prepared at various times, mostly by leaders and active participants in the struggle, and should be seen in their context.

  • 1. INTRODUCTION “ Unless Something New and Radical Is Done
    1. INTRODUCTION “ Unless something new and radical is done, Africa will not achieve the International Development Goals (IDGs) and the 7% annual Growth Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate” 1 The New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) is not only the newest and most fashionable game on the African continent, but also the latest in the efforts by African political leaders to deal collectively with the countless national, regional and continental political, socioeconomic problems and development challenges facing the continent. As much as a growing number of African political leaders enter the arena to declare their commitment to the agenda of Africa’s economic upliftment in the new millennium, there is very little civil society understanding of and support for a continental project such as NEPAD. The absence of meaningful and organic participation by civil society is the most vexatious of all the concerns that could mar the otherwise commendable vision of African sustainable development that NEPAD invokes. It is this absence of participation by civil society in the lives of their communities that has led to the failure of most commendable projects undertaken by African leaders since the early days of independence. In the words of the NEPAD document, what is now known as NEPAD is a merger of the Millennium Partnership for Africa’s Recovery Programme (MAP) and the Omega Plan. This was finalised into a new document and framework called the New Africa Initiative, (NAI) on 3 July 2001 in Lusaka, Zambia. The NAI was then approved by OAU Summit Heads of State and Government on 11 July 2001 (Declaration 1 (XXXVII)).

  • Interview with George Houser
    Interview with George Houser "It was George Houser who introduced me to people who supported the African anti-colonial struggle. ... All of us who came to the United Nations or the United States during our campaigning for independence received help and encouragement from the ACOA." — Mwalimu Julius K. Nyerere, in the foreword to George M. Houser, No One Can Stop the Rain[1] "We always conceived our work as part and parcel of the civil rights struggle. ... The struggle in Africa was to us, as Americans, an extension of the battle on the home front." — George M. Houser, " The Struggle Never Ends," October 2003[2] Introduction For three decades, from the early 1950s through the 1970s, George Houser was the American name most familiar to leaders of African liberation movements seeking sympathetic contacts in the unfamiliar and generally unsympathetic context of Cold War America. This was not because the American Committee on Africa (ACOA, pronounced A-C-O- A), the organization he headed for those years, was large, powerful, or well known, or because it had access to the corridors of power. Nor was Houser himself a public figure attracting media attention. It was simply because they could count on Houser being there, and doing what he could. Born in 1916 in Ohio, Houser grew up first in the Philippines, where his parents were Methodist missionaries, and then in New York state, California, and Colorado, where his father was a Methodist pastor. As a student active in the National Council of Methodist Youth in the 1930s, he absorbed the activist message of the Social Gospel, with its strands of pacifism, socialism, support for organized labor, and, above all, opposition to racial discrimination.

It aims at setting up a formal mechanism under the UN auspices to discuss and coordinate GGIM activities and by involving Member States as the key players. Two key programmes, namely the United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted in September 2015 by the General Assembly of the UN, and the African Union (AU) Agenda 2063, approved in January 2015 by the African Union, further emphasise the need for a global coordination mechanism for Geospatial Information Management (GIM) These two Agendas have a lot in common and are mutually supportive and coherent, while the Agenda 2063 is more specific on the needs of Africa. At its meeting in April 2016, the Conference of African ministers of finance, planning, economic development and integration highlighted these two Agendas as key to the next phase of Africa’s development and noted the supportive relationship of the two. Geospatial Information for Sustainable Development (GI4SD) in Africa, which is the African Action Plan on Global Geospatial Information Management (AAP-GGIM) is an implementation tool of UN-GGIM: Africa, the African component of the UN-GGIM initiative.

  • Boycotts and Sanctions Against South Africa: an International History, 1946-1970
    Boycotts and Sanctions against South Africa: An International History, 1946-1970 Simon Stevens Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Simon Stevens All rights reserved ABSTRACT Boycotts and Sanctions against South Africa: An International History, 1946-1970 Simon Stevens This dissertation analyzes the role of various kinds of boycotts and sanctions in the strategies and tactics of those active in the struggle against apartheid in South Africa. What was unprecedented about the efforts of members of the global anti-apartheid movement was that they experimented with so many ways of severing so many forms of interaction with South Africa, and that boycotts ultimately came to be seen as such a central element of their struggle. But it was not inevitable that international boycotts would become indelibly associated with the struggle against apartheid. Calling for boycotts and sanctions was a political choice. In the years before 1959, most leading opponents of apartheid both inside and outside South Africa showed little interest in the idea of international boycotts of South Africa. This dissertation identifies the conjuncture of circumstances that caused this to change, and explains the subsequent shifts in the kinds of boycotts that opponents of apartheid prioritized. It shows that the various advocates of boycotts and sanctions expected them to contribute to ending apartheid by a range of different mechanisms, from bringing about an evolutionary change in white attitudes through promoting the desegregation of sport, to weakening the state’s ability to resist the efforts of the liberation movements to seize power through guerrilla warfare.
