Dearest Sister and Comrade

( 16)

I wisn to thank you very much for having made it possible Tor

us to meet. The consultations‘were very fruitful, cni your

presence made an impact, and a resounding success ir. every­

thin'* we did.•mJ

Our Hatal comrades camc, but because the sysIr:.; constantly

followed them wherever they went, they decided to return. As

a consequence the con*sultations could not materialize. 33ut

do not worry I shall find a method that will ultimately make

the consultations a success. I am constantly hounded and

harassed by the police, but-this will never deter me from

the struggle. -In the words of my comrad^and leader: "The

struggle is my life”, and if need be I "am prepared to die"

to see that a just and non-racial democratic society is

established. The Gestapo-fascist regime oust be destroyed.

Yesterday (C August 1931) I met the 13 American Congress men

who were refused permission to visit our leader on the Island.

It was not difficult for me to present the AIIC’5 determination

to make a success of the struggle for liberation. I indicated

that we require no external intervention in our straggle. *.re

shall liberate ourselves, and that no one will stop us, or

distract us from that road.

I presented to them what I imagined our leader would have told

them, if they had had a chance to meet him. All educational

systems in this country are unacceptable. Soth these systems,

are a deviation from the aspirations of "The Freedou Charter*’,

I told them. And that anybody who deviates from the demands of

the *Charter’ is a traitor, and a fraud, or a downright quisling

•

From 197j, I have always stressed the fact that Elack education

(for Africans, Coloureds, and Indians) domesticates i.e. it

o.-.l-r teaches .-)oo.>lc to labour, and to take instructions.

1’lac*: "c.\.l ‘ are tuned Into uccjp'.:;*i>g a subservient position,

motive behind Black education is Chat 'llhitcncn is Coss', and

that this position must be entrenched.

h’ou, what is :.Ihite Education - known also as "National Christian

Education?'1 This as you will realise is neither "national"

nor ’’Christian". Tuite education is unacceptable because it

indoctrinates. It -seeks to entrench White supremacy. Pupils

and students are trains • to develop r. capacity to calculate,

decide, ..n:' manage.

I totally reject ?.!*. l:CT.l\'Z "total strategy" because it

neans a 'total1 and perpetual subjugation, and ensla^ema*it-

cf the Slack majority. I reject any dialogue with the oppressor

because it is s false premise. I reject any consultation with

the oppressor because it is a fruitless cnercise, and an

attempt to defuse, and delay the struggle for liberation.

Both education systems are strictly a capitalist facade to in­

culcate in pupils and students all the false values that tae

colonialists/imperialists/capitalists have used for more than

300 years. A rejection of all these false values will quickly

bring us nearer liberation than all the clap trap about "blac.: .

is beautiful", and all those couthings about how black we arc.

Toat the people should know is that we arc fighting for genuine

liberation, b'e are fighting for complete poli.u:.cal rign-s in

which "the people shall govern", in which "the land shall w d o n g

to those who live in it". Adhering to "The Trecdom Charter" is

the only way in which we can mobilise the masses. Any deviation

from this, is in my humble opinion, a complete betrayal of the

struggle for liberation.

.Then Z initiated the formation of C0SA3, and AZA30, the in-en*..*.on

was to create the 'Congress Youth League' with the hope that an

national organisation would be wormed to contain, and wo*.,

fruitfully with the league. . I am, as you know, in constant -

contact with the Youth League. A genuine or relevant "iff: j,|

prefer. It is related to the Russian, Cuban, Chinese,.

IAt the moment I am trying to restructure nTIie Womens’s

federation". It is at the moment ineffective. The success

of the struggle depends on the role that our women should

play. I shall not fail to ma!;e this a success. The AZASO

w°*1-crencc> tnat was held recently ;;as a roaring success,

i^ut «-iie ^OoAS one failed to achieve the required result.

As the consequence, another conference trill be held in

September. I am confident that there will be excellent re­

sults. The struggle will continue no matter what happens. The

COj.to con^e*.ence v.Tas not well organized. There are no funds to

organize on a country-wide scale. I managed to raise ?.400,

buu ius could not possibly bring all .the representatives to

’•elgc spruit. One encouraging feature uas that Soweto was

well respresented.

uy car is in bad shape. My financial position is a disaster

i-orcfto that I have been in and out of detentions. For corer

than'^i year, I have had no incoue. ’.Jithout financial

assistance. P.033 and I - uith four teenagers, arc literally

livin~ fro.i hand to r.;out!:. If I had funds it would be easy

for :.«e to organize, and nobilice the L'.ecf into a Powerful

force.

Each "roup should continue on its course without any inter­

ference. _
