Anti-Apartheid Protest at Columbia University, New York City

Columbia students demanded that the University stop its investments in companies doing business with apartheid South Africa. The signs read “Since last month’s trustee meeting 43, 000 dead of malnutrition/arrested for passbook law in South Africa”– “The time for investigation is over” –DIVEST NOW!,” and “Nukes Kill.”
