Strategies looks at the tactics that anti-apartheid activists pursued. From kitchen table poster sessions to building campus divestment campaigns, boycotting granny smith apples, disrupting wine tastings, and hunting down sanctions busters, activists pulled out all the stops to build popular mobilization and solidarity—and to systematically knock the legs out from under the apartheid system.

Featuring anti-apartheid activists Jane Armstrong, Barb Baer Pillay, Marie-Hélène Bonin, Mary Boyd, May Chiu, Nigel Crawhall, Aziz Fall, Sam Gindin, Ole Gjerstad, Martha Gordon, Vince Greason, Glen Gunning, Joanne, Amy Kaler, Jef Keighley, Ken Luckhardt, Doug Miller, Anne Mitchell, Dan O'Meara, Carol Phillips, Joe Pillay, Andrew Schofield, Gwen Schulman, Stephen Seaborn, Ken Traynor, Brenda Wall, and Rose Marie Whalley.
