JSTOR recently added two resources about the liberation struggle in South Africa to its Aluka collections.
South African Institute of Race Relations Collection
https://www.aluka.org/action/showAllText?doi=10.5555/AL.SFF.DOCUMENT.ae000227&pgs=
Partner/Contributor: Digital Innovation South Africa (DISA) and University of KwaZulu-Natal Libraries
Collection available in: Struggles for Freedom in Southern Africa
The South African Institute of Race Relations (SAIRR) Collection is now available in the Aluka Digital Library. SAIRR, founded in 1929, was the first national multiracial organisation ‘to work for peace, goodwill, and practical co-operation between the various sections and races of South Africa’. Its supporters included prominent liberals such as Edgar Brookes, Alan Paton, and Alfred and Winifred Hoernlé. Its most prominent publication was the annual A Survey of Race Relations in South Africa, which began publication with a volume for 1946/1947 under the title Race Relations Survey. The shorter title, Race Relations Survey, was resumed in 1984. This annual publication quickly became the standard reference source documenting political, social, and economic developments in South Africa, and continues to be published as South Africa Survey. This collection contains an initial set of volumes of the annual survey.
National Union of South African Students Collection
https://www.aluka.org/action/showAllText?doi=10.5555/AL.SFF.DOCUMENT.ae000228&pgs=
Partner/Contributor: Digital Innovation South Africa (DISA) and University of Cape Town Libraries
Collection available in: Struggles for Freedom in Southern Africa
The National Union of South African Students (NUSAS) Collection is now available in the Aluka Digital Library. NUSAS, founded in 1924 and initially open to students of all races, was restricted to white students from 1927 through 1945. However, the admission of students from Fort Hare and the nonwhite section of the University College of Natal restored its membership to a nonracial basis in the 1940s. In the 1960s, NUSAS became increasingly vocal in its critique of racial discrimination and of the apartheid regime. The students most active in NUSAS were from the English-speaking white universities. The organisation’s engagement in action against apartheid continued to grow in the 1970s and 1980s, although black students led by Steve Biko withdrew from the organisation in 1969 to form the South Africa Students Organisation (SASO).
The documents selected for this collection cover the period from 1966, when NUSAS gained much public attention, along with being attacked by pro-apartheid South Africans, for hosting U.S. Senator Robert F. Kennedy, through 1986, the year NUSAS activists travelled to Harare, Zimbabwe, for a meeting with the banned African National Congress.
The documents included in this collection were selected by Arlene Fanarof for Digital Innovation South Africa from the NUSAS Archive (Manuscripts & Archives, BC 586) at the University of Cape Town Libraries.
