South Africa was hardly populated at all before white men arrived there . Nobody invited hoards of blacks to come into South Africa , blacks came for a better life , more money and lift from primitive life which they suffered in surrounding countries , of course you can blame whites in SA for not giving blacks immediately villa and brand new mercedes . Ignoramuses reinventing history to suit their political goals -now go back into money extortion scheme which is your ultimate goal as well as a desire to rule over whites .NOW DOES IT EXPLAIN IT ALL WELL ? Before white men arrived in Africa cannibalism / tribal warfare . slavery . voodoo ,epidemies NAKED TITS and millions dying prematurely was a normalcy . nobody asked blacks to keep immigrating from surrounding countries into South Africa .if blacks did not liked better economical prospects in SA then they should have stayed where they were born .You blacks keep playing victims and yell racism but if not for white men you would still live in straw huts and run naked around

@@maureenjackson2041 That isn't what defines fascism. A common feature of fascism is that it DOES look down upon certain nationalities and ethnic minorities, but the ideology is a lot more than that. It is also an ideology rooted in socialism that unifies corporations (trade unions) and the state, and believes in the unity of the nation (which apartheid kind of goes against). I agree however that apartheid-era South Africa had some fascistic tendencies, and was in some ways influenced by fascism and Nazism. But it at the same time did not have the kinds of regimes that Italy and Germany did.

It makes me sad to see that this was normalized but a little hopeful that there were at least a portion of the white population that were very much against the nationalist government. Just a shame the black community and the white community that were opposed to this government couldn't make something happen sooner and instead had to suffer until the 90's. What makes it even worse is that the black community were screwed over by the white government for so long, and just when they think they're going to catch a break when the ANC took over, just screwed further. Just this time by their own.

He wanted to see the Palestinians free - sadly the Palestinian leadership chose hatred and violence. Madiba was unsuccessfully on this - but history has been rewritten. Alas, for Madiba, Nadine was not alone in his heart from the South African Jewish community to fight against apartheid.

South Africa seems to not have had any liberals in government during the NP rule hence it was easy to have these dumb laws they had. USA may have been racist in the 60's but none whites had opportunities. None whites could criticize the government and not get exiled or banned like Mirriam Makheba was.

Then there were other historical "black universities", as well like the University of the Western Cape, University of the North, University of Durban-Westville and the University of Cape Town already accepted their first black students in the 1920s. So it seems to me that there were good opportunities available but arguably not enough.

After the natives were dispossessed and and forced off their land, the union created the native reserves where the natives could live. The problem with these reserves was that they were deliberately made to be economically unviable, as they were extremely small i relation to population size and where typically the most unfertile and unproductive pieces of land available. Another problem qas the fact that white south africa needed cheap labour and the natives initially refused to work in mines and white farms. So to inspire movement into the cities, the government would impose various taxes on the conquered natives, These were hut taxes and taxes on food. So since the native reserves could not produce enough food to sustain the population, accompanied by the need to pay taxes on food, the government essentially created a situation were the native reserves become large labour reserves. It was at this point the natives had to leave their agrarian lifestyle and go seek labour in white south africa. The rapidly urbanising native population would then pose a problem to the poor white population as more natives begun making good money in the cities ans some were even able to buy back some of their ancestral land, and thats where apartheid would come from, essentially as a way to prevent natives from achieving upward mobility, thus trapping the native in a cycle of poverty.

@@floridaman_85_58 i did not know that. Politics are dirty. I was born in 59 and grew up only interesting in playing with friends. Didn't they really imposes taxes i those years? Verwoerd was interviewed by a British or French man i those years, which i only saw that recently. He said they divided South Africa into all these small provinces and let them tribes stay together with each other. They received help from the SA Government andxwas shown how to farm, but they did not do so. Their populations has multiplied over the years and still does. Interesting to hear.....

@@floridaman_85_58 No, KZN is the most beautiful fertile place I think in Africa. Some of the white farmers moved to Zimbabwe, Uganda and they are very succesful. Farms were given to the black folks lately, somebof them CAN because they want to, others dont give a dawn. Many of the most successful farms that landed in their hands, only ruins are left, its heart broken. I think they prefered to work in the mines and cities, the money was better.

Yes- like, if only there was land reform or something to give them back majority land and resource ownership, the one thing the official/public end of Apartheid expressly prohibited.

It's not difficult to be rich if you dispossess an entire nation of its property and belongings, enslave it'd citizens and pocket all the proceeds for their time and effort. The difference now is that the government is not only servicing 4% of the population as it did during apartheid. It has to service 100%. Now that same population that the Apartheid regime oppressed now has to get up to speed with eductaion, skills and systems. That means that for the foreseeable future, the black population will be Nett consumers and will rely on whatever exonomic gains that were made during oppression to carry it until the the historical disparities are corrected.

why didnt the old government include everyone ???

A right to live in a particular city of your own country ... how ridiculous. And our enlightened civilization thought that was tenable.
