In Broadcasting Apartheid, Tal Zalmanovich explores how television revolutionized the political landscape in postwar Britain and played a pivotal role in the international campaign against apartheid from 1950 to 1990. Drawing on case studies and a diverse array of sources, Zalmanovich argues that television's ability to transcend geographical and temporal boundaries proved instrumental in building a global coalition against apartheid in South Africa. Moreover, she shows how the medium became a key battleground in the broader struggle for racial equality in Britain, where debates over apartheid intersected with contemporary discussions about race, immigration, decolonization, and Cold War politics.
Tal Zalmanovich is a Research and Teaching Associate at the University of Haifa, specializing in broadcasting and protest in modern Britain and its empire. Her research focuses on the intersection of television, spectatorship, and political activism, and she has previously published in Postcolonial Studies, Critical Arts, and Safundi. She recently received the Marconi Fellowship at Oxford's Bodleian Library. Previously, Zalmanovich worked as a journalist and podcast host for New Books Network.
