Celebrating South African Freedom: A Symposium on the International Campaign to End Apartheid

The Aurora Forum, the Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute, and the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies are proud to sponsor a one-day symposium on the history and legacy of international campaigns to end apartheid in South Africa. Marking twenty years since the passage of the Comprehensive Anti-Apartheid Act of 1986 - the landmark legislation establishing official anti-Apartheid foreign policy for the United States government -- this symposium offers an opportunity to explore the international efforts that helped end apartheid in South Africa. The afternoon's events will include a combination of historical and political commentary, panel discussions by notable figures active in the anti-apartheid movements in the United States and at Stanford, and the debut of the groundbreaking documentary film series "Have You Heard from Johannesburg?" produced and directed by Connie Field and co-produced by Clayborne Carson.
