Answer:
i) Apartheid was the name of a system of racial discrimination unique to South
Africa. The white European imposed this system on the majority blacks in South
Africa.
ii) The system of apartheid divided the people and labeled them on the basis of their skin colour. The native people of South Africa are black in colour. They made up about three-fourths of the population and were called the ‘blacks’.
iii) Besides these two groups, there were people of mixed races who were called
‘coloured’ and people who migrated from India. The white rulers treated all nonwhites as inferiors. The non-whites did not have voting rights.
iv) The system of apartheid was particularly oppressive for the blacks. They were
forbidden from living in white areas. They could work in white areas only if they
had a permit. Trains ,buses, taxis ,hotels, hospitals, schools and colleges, libraries,
cinema halls, theatres, beaches, swimming pools, public toilets etc. were all
separate for the whites and blacks. This was called segregation. They could not
even visit the churches where the whites worship. Blacks could not form
associations or protest against the terrible treatment.
