	City of London Anti-Apartheid Group At Occupy London St Paul's Cathedral, London. Saturday 19 November 2011
	Singing played an important part in the four year non-stop vigil outside South Africa House by the City of London Anti-Apartheid group, started on 19 April 1986 and continued until the release of Nelson Mandela in 1990, carrying on despite over a thousand arrests and the coldest winter for years. They gained widespread support around the world but were attacked and disowned by the official leadership of the Anti-Apartheid Movement, because of their support for revolutionary movements other than the ANC, and because the official movement wanted to avoid confrontation with the UK government. The group was expelled from the AAM around a year before their long non-stop protest began, after carrying out a number of shorter protests..
