The history of geopolitics soviet phobia and anti-communism in South Africa

Description:

"The year 2021 is the centenary of the South African Communists Party. In 1961 the SACP underground marked its 40th anniversary by distributing ten of thousands of copies of a leaflet whose content is systematically discussed in various chapter of the book. This leaflet pointed out that Communists stood out for the direct opposite what the anti-communists stood for. It did not matter whether these putrid anti-communists were representatives of the apartheid regime, National Party, African National Congress (Gang of eight), Pan Africanist Congress, western powers and US government. The 1961 leaflet, among other things boldly declared: The National Party cannot destroy or supress communism'; You can kill people-but you cannot kill ideas, least of all, noble and true ideas like communism."--
