Apartheid (meaning separateness in Afrikaans cognate to English apart and -hood) was a system of racial segregation that was enforced in South Africa from 1948 to 1994. Apartheid was designed to form a legal framework for continued economic and political dominance by people of European descent.

Under apartheid, people were legally classified into a racial group — the main ones being White, Black, Indian and Coloured — and were geographically, and forcibly, separated from each other on the basis of the legal classification. The Black majority, in particular, legally became citizens of particular "homelands" that were nominally sovereign nations but operated more akin to United States Indian Reservations and Australian/Canadian Aboriginal Reserves. In reality however, a majority of Black South Africans never resided in these "homelands."

In practice, this prevented non-white people — even if actually resident in white South Africa — from having a vote or influence, restricting their rights to faraway homelands that they may never have visited. Education, medical care, and other public services were segregated, and those available to black people were generally inferior.

besides the undeniable fact that this may are available in the approach to three as quite racist....i fairly do not care. The ending of Apartheid is a suitable celebration as to what occurs at the same time as blacks get administration over something. Detroit, New Orleans, and many extra examples are accessible in case you care to study those as well. places that when prospered lower than the administration of white adult males, crumbled at the same time as Africans took over. might want to sound negative....besides the undeniable fact that it truly is very authentic. each now and then the reality hurts.
