Question

How did the apartheid laws affect South Africans?

Answer 1

Colonialism was the best thing that ever happened to Africans bearing in mind that they were still scratching in the dust for food and hadnt even discovered the wheel 400 years ago. Their tribes were small in number then given the frequent Wars between them and that they were prone to death from opportunistic diseases.

The Colonials introduced Medicines,Education,Infrastructure,Trade and generally attempted to civilise Africans sometimes with a great deal of success. The word "apartheid" was used to recognise the differences between Races and sought to allow these races to develop at their own pace.Unfortunately Communist terrorists such as Mandela skewed the word until today it is now associated with opression when in fact they sought only to destroy  the very fabric of  South African society with cowardly and despicable acts including the infamous "necklace" for personal gain.These Terrorists now masquerade as a legitimate Government and are in the process of returning South Africa to the Stone Age with their inherent corruption and criminality. They have spawned an entire generation bred on "entitlement" who would rather spin a yarn to Tourists and/or beg for money than do a good days work.

You can see the affects of allowing Marxist and criminal cabals of terrorists to run a Country in the shape of Zimbabwe and South Africa follows the same path as many who have fled the regime will testify.

Answer 4

Being  a black man in those times was h**l! Dogs were put on us for merely walking in the suburbs..We were always beaten by white ppl for entertainment..i believe they called it "kaffir bashing",where they would just beat us up for the fun of it..Our leaders were arrested,beaten and electrocuted just bcoz of the colour of our skin..and white men today complain just bcoz a few laws such as BEE are imposed?? It just doesn't make sense!

Answer 5

if you were any other race but white afrikaans were treated badly. if you were black you were treated the worst, if you were other races but black like indian, coloured etc, you were treated badly but better than the black people. not a lot of people know or talk about but english speaking were also treated badly for not being afrikaans, it was a mess, separating people because they do not look like you.

Answer 6

The apartheid laws were morally bankrupt laws.It destroyed thousands of families and some cases even White families.There were a group of Whites and Blacks that enjoyed theses laws.BUT in general it would take more than a generation and new laws to over come these deep rooted laws that people still carry in them.The privileged under Apartheid still cling to their morally bankrupt thoughts of the past.
