Den sydafrikanske befrielsesorganisation for det indfødte befolkningsflertals interesser South African Native National Congress (SANNC) dannes i Bloemfontein. (Fra 1923: African National Congress – ANC).
En fagforeningsleders forræderi. Af Peter Kenworthy (Arbejderen.dk, 12. januar 2018). “Efter at have tabt kampen om at efterfølge Nelson Mandela som præsident for Sydafrika foretog Cyril Ramaphosa en politisk og ideologisk kovending.”
Et nyt ANC. Af Mercia Andrews (Socialistisk Information, 21. juli 2012). “En aktivist på den sydafrikanske venstrefløj ser tilbage på ANC’s 100-årige historie. Fra en bevægelse, der stod i spidsen for massernes kamp mod apartheidregimet, er ANC blevet statsbureaukratiets og den nye økonomiske elites parti.”
‘Amandla Ngawethu’. Af Gorm Gunnarsen (Modkraft.dk/Kontradoxa, 6. januar 2012; online på Internet Archive). “Jeg vil her som historiker forsøge på at opsamle de centrale erfaringer, som den Afrikanske Nationalkongres (African National Congress, ANC), Afrikas ældste befrielsesorganisation, høstede undervejs.”
The ANC’s double bind. By Niall Reddy (Jacobin, June 10, 2024). “After losing its parliamentary majority for the first time, South Africa’s African National Congress is scrambling to form a coalition government. Its options are bleak.”
The beginning of the end of the ANC (Review of African Political Economy, June 6, 2024). “For the first time in South Africa’s 30 years of democracy, the African National Congress (ANC) failed to obtain a majority of votes making a coalition with other parties imminent. Luke Sinwell considers the consequences, and discusses the emergence of a new party, MK, led by Jacob Zuma. Sinwell looks at what has happened to the left, and its repeated failure to make any serious inroads into South Africa’s political scene.”
South Africa’s Communists were crucial to the fight against Apartheid. By Owen Dowling (Jacobin, February 12, 2023). Review of Tom Lodge, Red Road to Freedom: A History of the South African Communist Party 1921–2021 (Johannesburg: Jacana Media, 2021). “From its foundation in the 1920s, the South African Communist Party took up the fight against racism as a central part of its political vision. The party’s heroic record in the anti-apartheid movement has now received the historical treatment it deserves.”
Cyril Ramaphosa is not the answer. By Benjamin Fogel (Jacobin, December 21, 2017). “South Africa needs more than a new leader: it needs a new vision, one that levels economic inequality and dismantles patronage systems.”
What is the ANC and where is the left in South Africa? By Chris Webb (New Socialist, 4 October 2012). “The ANC is a difficult beast to understand. In its contemporary form it is perhaps most adequately described by writer and activist Patrick Bond’s useful “Talk Left, Walk Right” phrase, which describes its strategy of justifying neoliberal or anti-democratic policies using Marxist phraseology and obligatory allusions to struggle heroes.”
The ANC transformed. By Mercia Andrews (International Viewpoint, Issue 449, June 2012). “The ANC celebrated its hundredth anniversary on the 8 January 2012. This is indeed a major achievement for the oldest liberation movement in Africa. In its history it has had to negotiate many difficult challenges, perhaps none more so than retaining a broad unity while maintaining the ability to act and implement strategy. This is a remarkable part of the history of the ANC and bears testimony to generations of extraordinary leaders who shaped and guided the ANC.”
South Africa’s ANC at 100: a balance sheet of bourgeois nationalism. By Bill Van Auken (World Socialist Web Site, 11 January 2012). “The centenary celebration by South Africa’s African National Congress provides a fitting occasion for a balance sheet on the character and fate of the ANC and similar bourgeois nationalist movements.”
A poisoned chalice: liberation, ANC-style. By John S. Saul (Socialist Project/The Bullet, January 6, 2012). “here is good and obvious reason to celebrate the long history of the African National Congress (ANC): the organization’s marked dedication over one hundred years to the cause of the betterment of the lot of the oppressed African people in South Africa. It has also sustained an honourable commitment to a multi-racial, pan-ethnic outcome to the struggle against the unequivocally racist system that both segregation and apartheid came to represent for so long in South Africa. And, not least important, the ANC is now in power.”
Various documents on the Stalinism of the ANC. By Baruch Hirson and others (Searchlight South Africa, No.5, July 1990, p.30-68; online at Libcom.org). “[The article] exposes the authoritarianism at the heart of the African National Congress – an organisation that became fully Stalinist during the Cold War and which continues to operate with a toxic mix of paranoia and authoritarianism.”
Bookwatch: South Africa – the struggle continues. By Charlie Kimber (International Socialism, Issue 64, Autumn 1994, p.159-171)
32.000 tekstilarbejderes begynder 10 ugers strejke i Lawrence, Minnesota, der ender med sejr for arbejderne og syndikalisterne (IWW). Til kvindernes indsats i strejken laves sangen Bread and Roses.

“Brød og roser”: Tekstilarbejderstrejken i Lawrence, Massachusettes, 1912 (pdf). Af Per H. Hansen (Arbejderhistorie, nr.33, oktober 1989, side 31-50). “Den berømte »brød og roser« -strejke, hvor arbejderne – ledet af de ligeså sagnomspundne wobblier -ikke kun krævede lønforbedringer, men også menneskelig værdighed, er et udmærket eksempel på betydningen af koordineret faglig militant og politisk/parlamentarisk aktivitet.” Scroll ned.
The Bread and Roses Strike was an epic Labor action for workers’ dignity. By Liza Featherstone (Jacobin, January 11, 2024). “The Bread and Roses Strike began on this day in 1912, when women mill workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts, walked out. The strike ended in a landmark victory and popularized an enduring slogan: ‘The worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too’.”
How US textile workers fought back in 1912 (Socialist Worker, Issue 2787, 10 January 2022). “A hundred and ten years ago immigrant and women textile workers came together to beat the bosses and fight attacks on their wages in Lawrence in the US. Sam Ord tells their inspiring story that has lessons for today.”
Bread and Roses: The Lawrence Strike. By Randi Hensley (International Socialist Review, Issue 86, November 2012). “The Lawrence Strike of 1912—also known as the Bread and Roses strike—is one of the most inspiring episodes of working-class history in the United States. This year marks the Lawrence strike’s one-hundredth anniversary, and yet it still holds valuable lessons as our side continues to struggle for workers’ basic rights.”
A strike for bread and roses (SocialistWorker.org, January 11, 2012). “Elizabeth Schulte tells the story of the 1912 Lawrence strike on its 100th anniversary.”
Bread and Roses: the 1912 Lawrence strike (Socialist Worker, Issue 2284, 7 January 2012). “A strike by low-paid women mill workers 100 years ago this month shook the US ruling class – Judith Orr looks back at events and the powerful impact they had on other workers.”
1912: The Lawrence textile strike. By Sam Lowry (Libcom.org, September 10, 2006). “A short history of the strike of 20,000 textile workers, mostly women and girls who included native and immigrant workers, which won big concessions over wages, conditions and hours for the entire textile industry.”
1912 Lawrence strike. By Greg Beiter (Socialistworld.net, 12 July 2002). “The strike was a heroic showdown of over 20,000 immigrant textile workers against the inhuman working and living conditions forced on them by the textile bosses. Lawrence was a milestone for the American labor movement, showing that it was possible to organize women, immigrants and unskilled workers.”
Bread and Roses: The 1912 Lawrence textile Strike (pdf). By Joyce Kornbluh (from Rebel Voices: An IWW Anthology, by Joyce Kornbluh (Charles H. Kerr Publishing, 1988). “It became the most widely publicized I.W.W. conflict, acquainting the nation with the plight of the unskilled, foreign-born worker as well as with the organization’s philosophy of radical unionism.”
