Abstract: A group of fifty apartheid protesters picket the offices of Deak Perera (financial institution) on Franklin Street in Boston. The protesters carry signs; some protesters wear masks. The group chants anti-apartheid slogans. The protesters oppose the sale of krugerrands at the offices of Deak Perera. Graylan Ellis-Hagler (Church of the United Community) is one of the protest leaders. Ellis-Hagler speaks to a security guard inside of the Deak Perera offices. A group of protesters confront a woman doing business in the offices. She cuts them off and walks away. Two customers conduct business at a teller's window. A small group of protesters confer in front of a teller's window. One of the protest leaders announces to the group outside that the demonstration will come to an end.
