The Boycott That Has Become A War! - In Evaton the queerest bus boycott in the world has dragged on for 11 months in a blaze of violence that has claimed six lives...In Brakpanand Evaton the cry has been 'AZIKWELWA! HADIPALWANGOE! DON'T RIDE '; In Cape Town it was 'DON'T BUY TICKETS FOR APARTHEID! DON'T BOYCOTT THE BOYCOTT! And away in the American city of Montgomery, Alabama, the Negroes cried: 'DOWN WITH JIM CROW!' (Photograph by Peter Magubane BAHA)
