On April 17th, Berlin based INKOTA activists gathered in front of Deutsche Bank on Friedrichstraße dressed as bankers and ready to dig into an oversized cake representing the African continent. Protesters with signs reading "No to the sale of Africa!" and "Land for people, not for profit!" completed the picture. Passers-by were offered their "piece of Africa" along with a flyer explaining the land grabbing phenomenon and Deutsche Bank's involvement. More pictures and info (in German) at www.inkota.de
