Description

This image was taken (but not used) for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 01 August 1981, depicting the march in protest of the rugby match played between the South African Springboks and the Manawatū provincial team. The march was a coalition of organised responses from representatives and marshalls of COST (Citizens Opposed to the Springbok Tour), MAST (Manawatū Against the Springbok Tour) and HART (Halt All Racist Tours) and attracted participants from within the city but also from Wellington and Auckland. HART founder Trevor Richards appears second from right.
