rebeccam_svhs on 18 Sep 14The BDS-SA, an organization that wants to raise awareness for the Palestinians, put up billboards advertising their cause. However, they were taken down because they violated a city law about insensitive advertising. The BDS-SA made a lawsuit saying that the billboards' removal, and the city law, violated the constitution's freedom of speech. They won this case on Thursday, which shows how South Africa is recovering more from the apartheid because of freedom of speech and fair trials.
