Hundreds of black South African police officers marched through Johannesburg chanting “One settler, one bullet” and “Down with De Klerk.” The march was organized by the Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union, which is aligned with the African National Congress. “We must not allow ourselves to be used to intimidate the masses in the elections,” a union speaker said. South Africa’s first all-race elections are scheduled April 27.
