"You don't reform Nazism, you don't reform slavery and you don't reform

Charles Barron:
one person, one vote
Hi Robert I olhuin
“ The struggle is for one person, one
vote, 22 m illio n can take care ol I tie
re s t." W ith these strong w onts,
Charles B arron spoke out on South
Alrica at 1 ess is and Clark College anil
at Ainsworth United ( hurch ot ( hnsi
last week
Barron, Secretary G eneral o f the
A frican People's ( hrtstian Orgamza
lion and C hief o l S ta ll to N ational
Black U nited F ront C hairm an Res
Herbert D aughlrs. slopped in P o ll
land during his national tour A sixial
worket from New York ( its, Barron
has visited Zim babw e, Tanzania,
Kenya, and Grenada, where he met
with forinet Prime Minister Maurice
Bishop
Barton gave voice to what mans are
thinking
that it's mils a matter of
tune before South A lrica w ill he tilled
by its Black m a jo rity He uiged the
so lid a rity movement in tin I S to
make South A lnca an issue like Viet
nain once was, by redoubling its el
torts Io get colleges and local govern
ments lo divest, letter w ritin g , bos
colls ol businesses involved in South
A fric a , and picketing ships ca using
South A frica n cargo I he South At
rica support movement in the 11 S is a
historic one, Barron said, because it is
tlie first such movement organized and
kxl bs Black people
With the South African resolution,
the U S government once again has a
chance to put itsell on the right sule of
histo ry, he said " T o r to o long we
have been on the wrong side for the
wrong reasons, engaging ourselves
with the wrong people.”
What scares the white leaders ol the
Wesl, said B a iio n , is that Black ma
jo rily rule in South Africa will change
economic ami political relationships
throughout the world
“ Do you know that once Black
people liberated South A lrica, it w ill
be the first time hi the history o f the
globe that a Black nation has control
over a country with nuclear capability,
with high technology, a country that
supplies the w orld w ith its essential
minerals? 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. " 1 lies began to discuss the
future of South A ln c a ," he said, and
Pi line M nuclei Pic Botha was very
upset about the meeting.
Now ( base M anhatten Bank is
cutting o f f loans to South A ttic a ,
and the Hand, South A fr ic a ’ s cm
rency, has dropped fro m $1.20
to 15 cents in relation to the d o lla r,
Banon continued " I he puce ot gold
has dropped, and the Kruggerand
is in trouble."
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. " I his is not a struggle loi
jobs, this is not a snuggle lot affirm a­
tive action, it's not even a struggle lo
abolish ap.uthcnl. 'cause Ihcv’re going
to do that I he struggle is to r one
person, one vote, 22 m illion can lake
care of the rest "
