Remaining apolitical did nothing to support South Africa and South Africans under Apartheid.
Back in the day we had protests songs about not playing Sun City, and made it clear to all performers and sports teams that we didn't want them to go. In addition, we cut them off from commerce and trade. As we said in the 80s, "we don't do business with the people who do business with the apartheid regime."
