Southern Africa and liberation support in Afro-America and the West Indies

Abstract

This paper will attempt a brief review of one facet of the international support movement: namely, the responses of African descendants in North America and the West Indies to national liberation in Southern Africa. In turn, the attitudes of liberation movements to the said responses provide important indicators of the embryonic foreign policy of new and prospective states in liberated Africa. As well as reflecting the internal dynamic of the Southern African situation.
