In June 1959, a small group of activists joined together to form the Anti-Apartheid Movement (AAM) in Britain, campaigning against apartheid in South Africa.
In 2009 ACTSA celebrated the 50th anniversary of the founding of the AAM and looked back on its achievements and the ongoing challenges facing southern Africa as a legacy of apartheid.
