The FFF was founded in late 1986 in response to a call from the black community for whites to show a tangible response to the State of Emergency. This broad regional alliance was made up of some 25 organisations. These ranged from human rights groups to religious, political, professional and student organisations. The FFF had a dual objective of heightening awareness within the white community and drawing whites into anti-apartheid action. The aim was to remove Apartheid and have "one country and one people" in South Africa. The means by which this was to be achieved was by striving for the five freedoms: freedom from want, freedom of speech and association, freedom from fear, freedom of conscience and freedom from discrimination.
