  • Divesting from Apartheid: a Summary of State and Municipal Legislative Action on South Africa by Sandy Boyer
    ACOA. American Committee on Africa Divesting from Apartheid: A Summary of State and Municipal Legislative Action on South Africa by Sandy Boyer 1982 was a year of major victories for the movement to withdraw public funds from companies whose investment in South Africa subsidizes the apartheid system. Massachusetts, Michigan, Connecticut and the cities of Philadelphia, Wilmington and Grand Rapids all enacted legislation that will force the divestment of up to $300 million. The Massachusetts bill, which requires state pension funds to sell all stocks and bonds in companies doing business in South Africa, is the most comprehensive divestment legislation yet passed by any state. Philadelphia is the first major American city to pass a divestment ordinance. Both the Massachusetts and the Philadelphia bills call for full divestment of pension funds, and both are being used as model legislation in campaigns around the country. Already in 1983, legislative action against apartheid is being worked on in 21 states and 8 cities and counties. The following summary provides detailed information on this legislation. We hope it will be useful not only to legislators, but to many concerned people from the churches, the unions, and civil rights, community and campus organizations who have been working to end public investment in South African racism. We hope this summary will help you in your efforts to win many more victories in 1983. On May 1, 1980, the Citizens Committee on Responsible ALABAMA Investment which had been created to carry out the refer STATE ACTION: State Representative James Buskey will endum mandate, submitted its 45 page report.
