Educators against Racism and Apartheid

United States of America

Educators against Racism and Apartheid began in 1985 as Educators against Apartheid but it extended its activities to include racism in the USA and changed its name.  Besides developing educational materials for schools and publishing a newsletter distributed to educators all over the country; it also organised a boycott of Kellogg’s cereals, appealing to young people.  It was active in a campaign to withdraw US teachers’ retirement funds from companies dealing with South Africa.

The African Activist Archive, Michigan State University holds the archive of the organisation covering the period 1985-1994.
