Five men (three white and two black) ready to defend a German official's house at Windhoek, in German South West Africa (now Namibia). Sandbags for greater protection can be seen on the verandah behind them. As German settlers took over the land, there were increasing attacks by dispossessed natives. - Year: circa early 20th century
