South African
Teach In Comes to MBC
by Claude Barnes, Instructor of Political Science
by Claude Barnes, Jr.
On March 19, more than 400
students, faculty and staff partic-
pated in a Teach - In on South
Africa. The program was the
product of a joint effort by
Morris Brown’s Department of
Political Science and the Atlanta
South Africa Support Com
mittee. Organizers of the event
were pleased with the turn out of
Morris Brown students.
The Teach - In on South Africa
was part of a series of workshops
throughout the Atlanta Universi
ty Center. Programs were at
Clark College, Spelman, and
Morehouse Colleges also. Atlan
ta University also hosted a
workshop.
The purpose of the programs
was to acquaint students, faculty
and staff in the center with the
critical nature of the South
African problem and to examine
the role of the United States in
this area of the world.
Organizers of the event
pointed out that the Teach - Ins
were part of a larger effort by the
United Nations to educate more
people about the consequences
of United States involvement in
South Africa.
At Morris Brown College the
program consisted of a morning
session and an afternoon session.
Both sessions were hosted by
Morris Brown's Professor T. L.
Muckenge. The morning session
included presentations by
Professor R. S. Mkhize on “The
Nature of the Apartheid State.”
Betty Mokgoatsane spoke on
“Black Resistence in South
Africa,” and Claude Barnes on
“United States Foreign Policy
towards South Africa.”
The afternoon session includ
ed the same persons as the
morning session with the excep
tion that Dr. Mack Jones of
Atlanta University gave the
presentation on U. S. Foreign
Policy.
Both sessions were well
attended and extensive dialogue
was generated.
Most importantly, organizers
of the event credited with the
success of the Teach - In here at
Morris Brown College to the
cooperation and particpation of
the administration, faculty, and
staff.
