Lawyers against Apartheid

United Kingdom

Lawyers against Apartheid was formed in 1986 to organise the legal community in the UK. It was affiliated to the AAM.  As a specialist organisation, it concentrated on the exposure of the illegitimacy of the apartheid regime and promoting the Prisoner of War (POW) status for captured freedom fighters.  It dissolved in 1996.

The Glasgow Caledonian University has a substantial collection covering the period 1977-1996 but predominantly 1986-1991. It contains minutes, papers, news cuttings and campaign materials.
