Pound the Pavement #41: Apartheid? Hell No!

Art & Culture / Social Movements / Partner Publisher
Apartheid? Hell No! is a zine collecting over 100 anti-apartheid graphics from South Africa and the anti-apartheid solidarity movement in the 1980s, and it really feels like there is really no better time to recirculate this treasure box of potent graphics.
I originally found much of this content in an large photocopied document I unearthed from the library of the University of Colorado back in the late 1990s. While I photographed a lot of the imagery, the larger frame for it has been lost to time—I have no documentation of who originally assembled the content, although I suspect it was a grad student project from the late 1980s.
I've collaged the material in a similar manner to my Free Leonard Peltier zine (Pound the Pavement #22) from years back, but have also attributed the content whenever possible.
