Activists making and painting banners for a UDF rally which is set to happen in Pietermaritzburg. Ben Martins is depicted painting text on a banner.

On the morning of Saturday 21 October 1989, the women of Pietermaritzburg protested against police brutality and, in particular, the placing of razor wire around St Albans Cathedral in Pretoria on the 23rd of September. St Peter's Church was surrounded with protestors as part of this action.
