Anti Springbok tour demonstration
Protesters gathered in Wellington on the night of 13 June, when the All Blacks flew out to South Africa for their 1970 tour. For this tour, the South African government had agreed to treat Māori All Black players and spectators as ‘honorary whites’. Several protesters painted their faces in black and white halves.
In this photograph, a woman carries a placard with a poster that features a detail of a photograph of a protest at Cato Manor, Durban, in 1959, in which South African police subdued protesters with batons.
