Congresswoman Maxine Waters spoke to us about delivering the sixth Oliver Tambo Memorial Lecture which commemorates late struggle icon, consummate diplomat and doyen of democracy, Oliver Reginald Tambo, who would have turned 102 years old on 27 October 2019.
In 1986, as a member of the California Assembly, Rep. Waters called for the divestment of funds from corporations doing business with South Africa's apartheid regime and helped to make the call for divestment a national movement sweeping from state to state and city to city. She did this by authoring Assembly Bill 134, to divest a record $12 billion from public pension funds in California, thus fortifying California's opposition to the apartheid regime.
