Document 1Source: United States Congress House of Representatives, Committee on Un-American
Activities, How Communists Menace Vital Materials, map published in 1956.
A legend below the map provides assessments by the Committee of Un-American Activities
regarding Soviet activities in various parts of the world. The assessment for Africa (arrow number
three) reads: “Africa: [Soviet] encouragement of nationalist terrorists. Stirring up racial tensions.
Psychological warfare against U.S. and West based on colonialism and color.”
INTENDED AUDIENCE: The intended audience of this document was world leaders. I know this because it
was during the Cold War, where the Soviet and US were in a rough warless conflict, and tensions were so
high they attempted to do everything to their ability to prevent the Soviet’s from gaining more power.
Document 7
Source: Robert Mugabe, leader of the Zimbabwe African National Union [ZANU], a political and
military organization trying to end White minority rule in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe, interview in the
Mozambique-based newspaper Tempo, 1978.
“We are not a creation of the Soviet Union or Cuba; we are a creation of Zimbabwe. Our army is a
manifestation of the nationalist desires of our people, a product of the history of our country. . . . It is
true that the Soviets gave us aid, as did the entire international socialist community. ZAPU* trained
militants in Cuba and, after 1967, and so did we. But though we trained cadres in the socialist
countries, this did not transform our army into a Russian or Chinese army. Our war is supported by
the progressive world. And it is true that our objective is the liquidation of imperialism and
colonialism. But it is the Zimbabwean people who are fighting the war. No one can deny us the right
to seek aid from our friends and allies. But it will always be Zimbabweans who direct the struggle.”
*Another Zimbabwean militant group fighting against minority White rule in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe
