who are our friends and who
aren't'), of trying to tighten
the so-far ineffective trade
boycott of South Africa, and
meanwhile preparing to go
ahead with backing guerrilla
warfare in the Whitehead ter
ritories if all else fails.
Essentially, the enthusiastic
LEADERS of the northern three
quarters of Africa are wrestling
with the same choice that faces
American Negroes: whether to
continue to trust in economic
boycott and nonviolent drama
tization or to turn to violence.
This similarity of position Is
significant.
The racial drives of the dark
skinned peoples in the United
States and in Africa have inter-
acted and reinforced each other
like echoes growing louder in
stead of softer at each bounce.
The nonviolent system
worked out by Gandhi in the
future home of apartheid drew
on Thoreau's "civil disobedi-'
ence" in the United States.
That SYSTEMS release of India
from colonial status inspired
the extraordinary accelerated
independence sweep through
Africa, which in turn raised the
hopes and spurred the activities
of American Negroes using
Gandhian methods.
Now another cycle is in
progress. Many of the African
leaders here at the UN are
hoping the current upsurge of
the American Negro may help
them drive home to the Ameri-
can people the parallel serious
ness of their final drive against
racial inequity in the African
southern tier.
With this in mind they are
keeping a careful eye on the
Kennedy administrations mall
Liability on the domestic racial
issue as they lay their plans
for the July Security Council
meeting and possible dramatic
walkouts from the General
Assembly next fall similar to
that now in effect at the Inter
national Labor Organization
conference in Geneva.
The scheduled appearance of
the Rev. Martin Luther King
here soon to address the UN's
Apartheid Committee may pro-
vide some indications of the
relationship between the two
-acia1 equality drives.
Primarily, what the African
leaders are driving at is to
persuade American and Euro
pean public opinion to back the
idea of boycotting South
Africa.
The United States and Brit
ain thus become targets be-
cause of their heavy investment
In South African resources and
industry, and because of the
Africans supposition-perhaps
exaggerated-that Washington
and London can influence Cape
Town and Lisbon.
Both Western capitals are
reluctant because they do not
in principle believe in such
trade boycotts (although Wash
ington supported one against
Trujillo), and because London
Is concerned about the welfare
of its three protectorates either
surrounded by South Africa or
tied to it commercially.
To date the boycott idea has
been conspicuously unsuccess-
full. Not even all African
states have honored it. But
African leaders are, apparently
prepared to give it another
try, If only because they are
not fully equipped to turn to
military action.
