A2 litho black on white photo two young boys crying; text: What is needed by the black people of South Africa is not sticking plaster; but the promise of hope for the future. Not first aid but fundamental rights -- the right to sell their labour in the best market and to live with their families at their places of work, a just share in the wealth they have helped to create in 'white South Africa' and an equal voice in the affairs of one united land. (from 'South Africa - A land divided' - Black Sash) Press office - SA Catholic Bishops Conference.
