Description: |
This poster is an offset litho in black, produced by the Student Union for Christian Action (SUCA), Cape Town. This poster depicts the existing issue of racism when coloured or Indian people conscripted into the army. Even though the coloured and Indian people would have the ‘privilege’ of being conscripted into the army in return for the vote, they would remain politically subservient to the white government. The text reads “Subservient in Power : Equals in Defence : from CONSTITUTION to CONSCRIPTION : When JUSTICE rules, then will PEACE reign.” Digitised by Specialised Archival Solutions in 2009. Reproduced in "Images of Defiance: South African Resistance posters in the 1980s" on page 32 (number 46) of the 1991 SAHA / Ravan Press edition and the 2004 SAHA / STE Publishers edition. |
