Anti-Apartheid Poster Collection
Description
The Anti-Apartheid Poster Collection includes posters created by the African National Congress (ANC) and other non-governmental organizations and entities to protest apartheid, a 20th century South African system of institutionalized racism and segregation.
The anti-apartheid posters are a subset of the much larger collection of posters from and about Africa held by the IU Libraries. Posters can be consulted in the African Studies Collection office in the Herman B Wells Library, Room E660. Instructors should contact the librarian about using posters in their instruction.
