"We were part of a worldwide movement that continues today to redress the economic and social injustices that kill body, mind, and spirit.
No Easy Victories makes clear that our lives and fortunes around the globe are indeed linked." - Nelson Mandela Hundreds of thousands of Americans mobilized to oppose apartheid in the 1980s. That successful movement built on decades of behind-the-scene s links between African liberation movements and American activists, both black and white.
No Easy Victories draws on the voices of activists of several generations to explore this largely untold history. Today Africa and the world face global injustices as deadly as apartheid. Understanding this history of solidarity is essential for finding new paths to a future of equal human rights for all.
