DAVIDV: IF THIS STORY SOUNDS FAMILIAR .. ITS BECAUSE IT IS.
#WAKE_UP!! CITIZENS OF THE #UNITED_STATES OF #AMERICA!
Why #South_Africa is still so #Segregated | #APARTHEID #EXPLAINED..
That story starts closer to the 1800s, when the #British built a network of #railroads that transformed the region's #economy into one that excluded most #Black_people -- and then made that EXCLUSION OF THAT LAW.
For decades, South Africa was under apartheid: a series of laws that #divided_people by race.
Then, in the 1990s, those #laws were #dismantled.
But many of the #barriers they created continue to #divide South Africans #by_skin_color
- which in turn #determines their #quality of #life, access to #jobs, and #wealth.
#Racial #division was built into the #fabric of cities throughout South Africa, and it still hasn't been #uprooted.
That's partly because, while apartheid was the culmination of South Africa's racial divisions, it wasn't the beginning of them.
