I had an article I once wanted to write on Chicago's anti-apartheid movement. I abandoned it when I left, and also because of Covid: there was no real chance in 2020 or 2021 to tackle something like this, especially without a university library.

Something I wanted to tackle was explaining why these movements kept going. One of the things I come back to again and again was that activists wanted to use opposition to apartheid to critique police violence, militarism, and neoliberalism at home.
