80s37. ‘People’s Sanctions – Break the Links’

After the publication of its Manifesto for Sanctions in 1987, the AAM organised a March Month of People’s Sanctions. Hundreds of thousands of this leaflet were distributed during the month by local anti-apartheid groups. Action days focused on companies like Standard Chartered Bank on 4 March and the mining company RTZ on 9 March. The campaign culminated in a National Convention for Sanctions on 27 June.
