Sheffield’s Anti-Apartheid Movement

Sheffield’s Anti-Apartheid Movement

This lesson was devised and used by the late Mark Hutchinson, a history teacher at High Storrs Secondary in Sheffield.  In the lesson, students use photo documentation from the 1980s when Sheffield became the first local authority to pledge that it would end all links with apartheid (see Sheffield and Anti-Apartheid Movement study guide) The main focus of the lesson is on the visit of Marti Caine to the Sheffield Crucible Theatre in 1984 and the protests surrounding this. We are grateful to the AAM Archives Forward to Freedom committee for granting us permission to use some of the images.
