You Can't Ignore This! President Street South Africa

Brooklynites Against Apartheid posted this poster in the Park Slope area of Brooklyn including President Street seeking to make the area an apartheid free zone. One of the organizers explained: "We printed a lot of these and posted them in store windows and other places when the residents of President Street between 7th and 8th Ave. took money to allow a South African promotional film." Another target in the area was Citibank, which had an office on President Street, because of its loans to South Africa. Size: 11 X 17 inches.
