De Beers boycott launched

Survival International has launched a postcard campaign calling on the public to boycott De Beers diamonds and Iman cosmetics. Survival International says De Beers opposes the recognition of indigenous peoples’ rights in Africa, and its managing director in Botswana has welcomed the eviction of the Gana and Gwi Bushmen from their land; Iman is De Beers’s ‘public face’.
