Signage: | A flower is constructed of many hands of different skin colours. The central Black hand with a raised fist is emblematic of the resistance struggle against apartheid, while the surrounding hands speak to how people of all races and sexes fought and continue to fight against racism, sexism and other forms of injustice, coming together for a shared goal. |
