pic8424. South African war resisters

The Committee on South African War Resistance (COSAWR) handed over sports equipment for the ANC’s Solomon Mahlangu Freedom School for South African refugee children to ANC representative Solly Smith and Adelaide Tambo in 1984. From the early 1980s young white South Africans who refused to do compulsory military service came to Britain and played an important part in anti-apartheid campaigns.
