What was the Apartheid ?
It was the racial segregation system in South Africa until 1992. Basically, this racial segregation system consisted in the creation of separate places for the different racial groups, in the exclusive power of the white race.
Background : The system was effectively practiced in South Africa for centuries by whites against the black population of this territory
Establishment : Afrikaner racial discrimination against the black population was not formalized until 1948
Daily segregation : In 1953 segregated areas were established in the cities of South Africa
- Blacks couldn’t work in the government and couldn’t vote
- Blacks were not allowed to enter to the areas for white population, unless they had a pass from the police
- The areas assigned to blacks rarely had electricity or water
