The iconic Haring FREE SOUTH AFRICA poster of 1985 and signed by HARING in 1986.

Haring wrote that “Control is evil. All stories of white men's "expansion" and "colonization" and "domination" are filled with horrific details of the abuse of power and the misuse of people. I'm sure inside I'm not white. There is no way to stop them, however. . . . I'm glad I'm different. I'm proud to be gay. I'm proud to have friends and lovers of every color. I am ashamed of my forefathers. I am not like them.” in a journal entry from March 28, 1987. His poster Free South Africa  originated from a painting in 1984 of the same design In 1985, he transformed the painting into lithograph and added the text “Free South Africa” to the lower border of the composition. It is said that Haring distributed around 20,000 poster versions of this print in New York City in 1986 in an effort to mobilize support against the apartheid.
