THE Anti Apartheid Movement in London is beginning a drive to increase its support amongst London's 75.000 students. Students last vear organised many anti apartheid activities, as being the largest contingent on the AAM demo last November.

Mostly the spur for this activity, however, has come from the colleges themselves, rather than being coordinated by the Anti Apartheid Movement. so in the colleges there is a great potential support for the AAM which is still untapped.

To try and draw on this support the AAM London committee is inviting all student AAM groups to send representatives, and is coordinating with NUS London organising AA stalls at this year's freshers fairs in all London colleges. The aim is to link up student groups with local groups. This will allow the AAM to effectively mobilise students for fortheoming pickets of South African Airways and to organise gigs in colleges to raise money for the AAM, the ANC and SWAPO.

The next meeting of the London AAM committee, which students should try to attend, in on 13 October, Camden Town Hall, 7pm. Future AAM activity in London includes: Namibia week of action, 27 October-3 November. Picket Shell Centre, 4pm, South Bank. as well SEPT Black People's Campaign For Justice BROADWATER FARM DEFENCE CAMPAIGN
