- catalog abstract ""This study traces the evolution of the anti-apartheid movement among African Americans from its origins in the 1940s through the civil rights and black power eras to its maturation in the 1980s as a force that transformed U.S. foreign policy. The book traces the emergence of this counter-hegemonic discourse in the radical African diaspora politics of the 1940s despite its suppression by the government. It looks closely at efforts to co-opt African-American leaders and organizations through an "enlightened paternalism" that included covert and overt CIA funding and the establishment of anticommunist journals. In the 1950s and 1960s anti-apartheid sentiment reemerged during the civil rights movement and found its strongest expression during the black freedom movement of the next decade. The book looks at three important political groups: TransAfrica - the black lobby for Africa and the Caribbean; the Free South Africa Movement; and the Congressional Black Caucus and its role in passing sanctions against South Africa over President Reagan's veto. It concludes with an assessment of the impact of sanctions on the release of Nelson Mandela and his eventual election as president of South Africa."--Jacket.".
