A sculpture on Lothian Road near the Sheraton Hotel. The plaque reads as follows... "Erected by the City of Edinburgh District Council. To honour all those killed or imprisoned for their stand against aparthied. Unveiled 22nd July 1986 by Suganya Chetty. Sculpted by Ann Davidson 'VICTORY IS CERTAIN'" Prophetic words indeed as the aparthied system in South Africa collapsed in 1993
