Afrapix produced a number of collective exhibitions in its 10 years of existence. Some of the key exhibitions were 'Cordoned Heart', 'Staffrider' annual exhibition, 'Crossroads', 'Taking Sides', 'Children's Exhibition' and 'Human Rights'. Typically these exhibitions were shown at conferences, in community halls, and other events in order to raise awareness about the pressing issues of the time. Some also went overseas like 'Cordoned Heart' and 'Taking Sides' (which became 'Beyond the Barricades'). These exhibitions often were shown in main stream galleries, and 'Cordoned Heart' and 'Beyond the Barricades' were also published as books.
The interviews were facilitated and carried out by the Robert Sobukwe Trust and the Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe Museum & Learning Centre, as well as the Wits History workshop, University of the Witwatersrand.
Most of the interviews relate to the history around Graaff-Reinet. However, all of the interviews under "Sobukwe and PAC" relate to topics over and above local history.
The collection consists of a variety of records and documents related to anti-apartheid movements all over Japan. Operational records of the group in Osaka, "Comrade Africa Committee", include meeting notes, plans for events, drafts for publications, name lists, fliers, questionnaires, photos, clippings, and correspondence. Newsletters of many other Japanese movements which networked with Comrade Africa Committee are also included.
The papers consist mainly of historical information on USSALEP, minutes, correspondence, records of the various projects and individual files on management committee members and some exchangees. Not all files have been retained; in the case of fundraising correspondence and individual files a sample was considered sufficient to indicate the scope of the project for historical purposes. There is a certain amount of duplication; for the convenience of researchers the minutes have been collected separately in D and additional copies may be found in the correspondence files and mailings to members; material of historical interest may also be found in correspondence files, which are a rich source of information on the organisation. Some photographs are in the original personal files and some have been assembled under N. A number of photos are not identified.
The collection contains trial records relating to Wouter Basson, the former head of the South African Apartheid state's Chemical and Biological Weapons Programme (CBW), covering the years 2000-2003. The records were received in electronic format from the records offices of each of the respective courts listed below.
