We plan to assemble at the United Nations and march to Central Park. We have invited the major labor, religious, peace-loving and human rights leaders of South Africa to address the rally and give testimony to the struggle of their people. We call this rally in the spirit of firm solidarity, bearing in mind our responsibility to reverse the Reagan Administra­ tion's immoral support of the Botha regime. Such support of the South African government can only serve to prolong the agonies, suffering and killing of a people who are determined to win their freedom and win it now. Reflecting our people's repugnance at the system of apartheid, we intend to demonstrate that the people of the United States are solidly in support of majority rule in South Africa and demand that our government apply all necessary political, economic and cultural sanctions against this despotic regime. We, hereby, call upon all people of good will to participate in guaranteeing the success of the June 14th March and Rally for the freedom of the South African people and all the oppressed people of southern Africa. Keeping in mind that their freedom is our freedom, and injustice anywhere affects justice everywhere.
