The Bodleian has rich collections of ephemera, apart from the John Johnson Collection, among its printed books and archives. I am very grateful to my archivist colleague, Lucy McCann, of the Bodleian Library of Commonwealth & African Studies, for this guest post about the ephemera which form part of the Anti-Apartheid Movement Archive.
A website recording the history of the Anti-Apartheid
Movement in Britain was formally launched on 20 March 2014. Funded by the Amiel
& Melburn Trust and the Heritage Lottery Fund, 'Forward to Freedom: The
History of the British Anti-Apartheid Movement, 1959-1994' (www.aamarchives.org) summarises the history of the Movement and
makes freely available a selection of documents and other items held in the
Anti-Apartheid Movement (AAM) Archive in the Bodleian Library, University of
Oxford. The website gives a sample of
the rich collection of printed ephemera within the archive dating from the
Movement's origins in 1959 to the holding of the first democratic elections in
South Africa in 1994, after which the AAM disbanded.
Printed ephemera were key to the AAM's operations and
effectiveness. Posters and leaflets rallied supporters to demonstrations and
marches and raised awareness among the general public of campaigns such as the
consumer boycott of South African goods and support for political prisoners.
Much of the ephemera in the archive was produced by the AAM's head office in London
(located from the mid-1980s at 13 Mandela Street) but the archive also includes
leaflets and posters created by local groups around the country and others who
gave support such as trade unionists, students, churches and professional
groups ('Lawyers Against Apartheid', 'Architects Against Apartheid'). Leaflets, posters, postcards, greetings
cards, catalogues and wrapping paper can be seen on the website.
The material on the website forms only a small proportion
of the whole archive, the catalogue for which can be seen at http://www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/dept/scwmss/wmss/online/blcas/aam.html

What an insightful post about the Anti-Apartheid Movement and how these pieces of history played a vital role in mobilizing change. The way these ephemera rallied people for justice reminds me of the message in Surah Al-Waqiah(سورة الواقعة مكتوبة كاملة), where steadfastness in doing what is right leads to a greater reward. Just as the Anti-Apartheid Movement united people for freedom, we are called to take action in support of justice and righteousness in our own lives. Every small effort contributes to a larger, meaningful change.
