describe in brief the policy of apartheid
Answers
Answer:
Apartheid, (Afrikaans: “apartness”) policy that governed relations between South Africa’s white minority and nonwhite majority and sanctioned racial segregation and political and economic discrimination against nonwhites. The implementation of apartheid, often called “separate development” since the 1960s, was made possible through the Population Registration Act of 1950, which classified all South Africans as either Bantu (all black Africans), Coloured (those of mixed race), or white. A fourth category—Asian (Indian and Pakistani)—was later added.
Explanation:
apartheid was the discrimination on basis of races(skin colour). In this white south Africans have abolished the entry of blacks in their areas without a legal permission. Black south africans have to use separate roads ,schools,colleges,roads,trains,even toilets.This was called SEREGATION.
In this there citizen rights were also taken ,they were beaten and treated as slaves.This all was being ended when black majority realised there powers and protested against it and adopted democracy with his first president Nelson Mandela.
And now soith africa has one of the world best and most protective constitution...
