  4. Review & Background Beginning in the 1600s, Europeans began taking control of Africa. Europeans wanted control of the slave trade, to gain natural resources, and to expand their empires. Due to imperialism, some Europeans stayed in Africa, specifically in the country of South Africa. Even though there were few white Europeans living in South Africa, these individuals held all of the power. In 1948, the white run government established a set of laws that made it legal to discriminate or show prejudice against the nonwhite people living in the country. This system, which existed until 1994, was called apartheid.

The word apartheid means “apartness” in Afrikaans, a language spoken in South Africa. The population of the country is mostly nonwhite. But for many years the white people of South Africa controlled the country’s government. They established laws that kept the races separate and discriminated against the nonwhite majority. 2.

  7. In what ways did apartheid discriminate against nonwhite South Africans? What was apartheid? Apartheid divided South Africans into four groups: white, Bantu (black), Colored (of mixed descent), and Asian. The policy created separate areas in cities for each group. Members of a group were not allowed to live, operate businesses, or own land outside of their area. Under “pass” laws, nonwhites had to carry passes while in white areas. Other laws set up separate schools and restricted each race to different types of jobs. The government also created 10 territories called “homelands” or “townships” and forced all black South Africans to move to them. 2. Highlight evidence from the text to support your answer.
