Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that American artists and athletes who decline to participate in cultural and sports activities in South Africa because of that country's apartheid system are to be commended. Expresses the sense of the Congress that the Department of State should: (1) inform U.S. artists and athletes who request information on travel to South Africa for such activities that the U.S. Government discourages such travel; (2) confirm U.S. opposition toward recognition of the so-called independent homelands; and (3) express its sympathy with the victims of apartheid by voting in favor of U.N. resolutions that seek to mobilize activities by cultural and sports personalities against apartheid.
