That is the struggle in South A fric a ." Barron predicted that a lice South A fric a w ould lead lo lib e ra tio n o f neighboring countries N a m ib ia , Mozambique, Botswana, I esotho and Swaziland and set the stage tor a union ot Southern A fric a n states "O n ce that happens, in te rn a tio n a l politics will never he the same again," lx* said. B arron listed many " te llta lin g signs” that show apartheid crumbling. Probably the best barometer o l the situation, he said, is that South A fri can business leaders, in clu d in g the chairman ol the huge A nglo M ining Co., met recently with representatives ol the A frica n N ational Congiess to discuss the p ost-apartheid business climate.

In addition, lie said, <4 colleges and universities have divested $251 million " I he university struggle is the struggle that I firm ly think can hieak the hack ol a p a tlh e td ," he told the I ewis and ( lark students According to Barron, 77 percent o l South A frica n s want divestment. While other countries are isolating South A ln c a , " I t 's the Reagan Ail m inistration that's holding lo r some strange reason to the support ol apati h e ld ," he said Reagan’ s talk o l re form s was only " a m asterful public relations c o u p " designed to put o lt true change, Barron said Anil the Sul livan P rinciples, an o lt m entioned reform encouraging Am erican bust nesses lo treat Black ami white wotk ers equally, only affects less than one percent ol Black workers and actually serves lo prolong apartheid, accord mg to Bairoil " Y o u d o n 't reform Nazism, you d o n 't reform slavery and you d o n 't reform apartheid You abolish i t , " Barton said.
