Khulumani Red Card Campaign

The Khulumani Support Group Red Card Campaign was a 5 week blogging campaign during the 2010 Soccer World Cup in South Africa.

It is a journey into the various aspects of the so-called 'Apartheid Litigation' against multinational corporations that are charged with aiding and abetting the commission of apartheid gross human rights violations.

With almost 10,000 visits this is a great source of information on Khulumani's groundbreaking lawsuit campaign.
