History
WAAM, described as the most powerful pressure group in Wales campaigned vigorously for an end to racism, colonialism and Apartheid in South and Southern Africa.
ACTSA has since 1976 hosted an annual sponsored walk, the SOWETO WALK, commemorating the June 16, 1976 massacre as a fund raising exercise. Action for Southern Africa (ACTSA) is a successor organization to the Wales Anti-Apartheid Movement. For decades, funds raised through the SOWETO WALKs and other initiatives have been regularly channelled into South Africa.
