"Open City" walk in Cape Town to protest against the Group Areas Act

About 2000 people participated in an 'Open City' walk to indicate their opposition to the Group Areas Act which reserves certain residential areas for different race groups. This participant, with a banner saying "it's my country I will live where I choose to!!", was instructed not to hold his banner because the police had forbidden the display of any banners and posters. He tied the poster to his back so was not 'holding' it.

Parade for SAP recruits from townships

320 policemen, fully armed with guns, recruited in Cape Town's black townships, had their passing out parade in Cape Town after only six weeks in training. They will return to patrol the townships as part of the South African government's response to the growing militant resistance to the state's apartheid structures.
