The African Peoples' Democratic Union of Southern Africa (APDUSA) is a Trotskyist political group in South Africa. Formed in 1961, it emerged from the Non-European Unity Movement, and was closely associated with I.B. Tabata, a leading Marxist who died in exile in 1990. Its aim was to end white minority domination of South Africa and ultimately achieve a socialist revolution supported by an alliance of the urban proletariat and peasantry.[1] APDUSA was involved in armed struggle in the 1960s, but suffered heavy repression from the apartheid state.[2] APDUSA remains active today [3] and publishes the APUDUSAN Newsletter.[4]
