  • Trekking Outward
    TREKKING OUTWARD A CHRONOLOGY OF MEETINGS BETWEEN SOUTH AFRICANS AND THE ANC IN EXILE 1983–2000 Michael Savage University of Cape Town May 2014 PREFACE In the decade preceding the dramatic February 1990 unbanning of South Africa’s black liberatory movements, many hundreds of concerned South Africans undertook to make contact with exile leaders of these organisations, travelling long distances to hold meetings in Europe or in independent African countries. Some of these “treks”, as they came to be called, were secret while others were highly publicised. The great majority of treks brought together South Africans from within South Africa and exile leaders of the African National Congress, and its close ally the South African Communist Party. Other treks involved meetings with the Pan Africanist Congress, the black consciousness movement, and the remnants of the Non-European Unity Movement in exile. This account focuses solely on the meetings involving the ANC alliance, which after February 1990 played a central role in negotiating with the white government of F.W. de Klerk and his National Party regime to bring about a new democratic order. Without the foundation of understanding established by the treks and thousands of hours of discussion and debate that they entailed, it seems unlikely that South Africa’s transition to democracy could have been as successfully negotiated as it was between 1990 and the first democratic election of April 1994. The following chronology focuses only on the meetings of internally based South Africans with the African National Congress (ANC) when in exile over the period 1983–1990. Well over 1 200 diverse South Africans drawn from a wide range of different groups in the non- governmental sector and cross-cutting political parties, language, educational, religious and community groups went on an outward mission to enter dialogue with the ANC in exile in a search to overcome the escalating conflict inside South Africa.

  • Objecting to Apartheid

Signature…………………………………………………………… Abstract This dissertation explores the history of the End Conscription Campaign (ECC) and evaluates its contribution to the struggle against apartheid. The ECC mobilised white opposition to apartheid by focussing on the role of the military in perpetuating white rule. By identifying conscription as the price paid by white South Africans for their continued political dominance, the ECC discovered a point of resistance within apartheid discourse around which white opposition could converge. The ECC challenged the discursive constructs of apartheid on many levels, going beyond mere criticism to the active modeling of alternatives. It played an important role in countering the intense propaganda to which all white South Africans were subject to ensure their loyalty, and in revealing the true nature of the conflict in the country. It articulated the dis-ease experienced by many who were alienated by the dominant culture of conformity, sexism, racism and homophobia. By educating, challenging and empowering white citizens to question the role of the military and, increasingly, to resist conscription it weakened the apartheid state thus adding an important component to the many pressures brought to bear on it which, in their combination, resulted in its demise.

Report on Meetings arranged by The Africa Fund for the African National Congress led Delegation October 4-6, 1993 "I am writing to ask you to prepare for the lifting of sanctions in the cities and states of the U.S.A.... We hope that the cities and states that were the firm backbone of the anti-apartheid movement in the United States will commit themselves to actively supporting re-investment in the South African economy in a socially responsible manner which will help address the devastating legacy of apartheid." Nelson Mandela Letter to Jennifer Davis, July 27, 1993 "We trust that governments around the globe, that have been so central in the effort to defeat the system of apartheid, will do what they can to help us ensure the upliftment of our people. A similar appeal extends to the millions of people organized in the broad non-governmental antiapartheid movement themselves to remain involved in the continuing struggle for a democratic South Africa and to add to their programs the extension of all-round development assistance from people to people." Nelson Mandela Address to the United Nations September 24, 1993 Summary Days after Nelson Mandela called for the lifting of economic sanctions at the U.N., The Africa Fund hosted a series of meetings to enable the African National Congress and its allies to explain to key legislators, institutional investors and investment advisors post-sanctions policy towards foreign investment.

  • Premier of the Western Cape – Ebrahim Rasool
    Premier of the Western Cape – Ebrahim Rasool List of Honourees receiving Provincial Honours 2004 1. Commander of the Order of the Disa awarded to Nelson R. Mandela As a young man, hearing the elders’ stories of his ancestors’ valour during the wars of resistance in defence of their fatherland, Nelson Mandela dreamed also of making his own contribution to the freedom struggle of his people. He served articles at a law firm in Johannesburg where years of daily exposure to the inhumanities of apartheid, where being black reduced one to the status of a non-person, kindled in him a courage to change the world. On joining the Youth League of the African National Congress, Nelson Mandela became involved in programmes of passive resistance against apartheid’s denial of political, social and economic rights to South Africa’s black majority. In the revolution led by Mandela to transform a model of racial division and oppression into an open democracy, he demonstrated that he did not flinch in the face of adversity. As the world's most famous prisoner, leader, teacher and man, he exemplifies a moral integrity that shines far beyond South Africa. 2. Commander of the Order of the Disa awarded to F.W De Klerk When F.W de Klerk lifted the ban on the ANC and other organisations in 1990, he set in motion a new era of transformation in South Africa. This end to apartheid and South Africa’s racial segregation policy paved the way for negotiations, resulting in the release of Nelson Mandela and culminating in the first ever racially inclusive elections in South Africa in 1994.

  • 509 Concerns on the Political Agenda. It Has Not Proved Easy for Any
    Reviews 509 concerns on the political agenda. It has not proved easy for any gov- ernment to destroy their movement because of the international stigma which would attach if they did so: Morocco even tried to coopt the movement, but failed. The movement has had some successes, usually in relation to individuals whom they have succeeded in getting released or better treated. The notorious Tazmamart prison in Morocco, whose very existence had been consistently denied, was finally admitted to after being quietly emptied. Of particular current interest is the section dealing with the Gulf War of 1990. The human rights groups found it very difficult to know how to respond to this, feeling themselves torn in different directions. They were concerned about the plight of Iraqi civilians, aware of American double standards over Iraq on the one hand and Israel on the other, and tended to share popular resentment of the over-rich oil states such as Saudi Arabia. The Maghribi states did not all toe the same line during the crisis, nor did the human rights groups. The inci- dent highlighted the difficult and sensitive situations such groups have to find their way through. This is a study which can be warmly recommended for the depth and extent of its coverage and its thought-provoking examination of a subject of major concern in today's world. It has much to say about ethics, religion and secularist tendencies in societies not yet fully absorbed into global capitalism. Cambridge M.

Emma Elinor Lundin ABSTRACT This thesis discusses the struggle to increase women’s participation in public and political life by focusing on the activism of women within the Swedish Social Democratic Party (SAP) and the African National Congress of South Africa (ANC) from 1960 until 1994. It argues that internationalism was key to these women’s success, providing them with a source of support and funding as well as a stage to develop policies away from overwhelmingly patriarchal national settings. Creating and steering political trends and discussions in international fora, and bolstered by the approval of others in the international community, the women who feature here gained a foot in the door of power and created environments conducive to their presence, abilities and voices.
