How did South African Apartheid happen, and how did it finally end? – Thula Simpson

Israel’s time will come, God is the deliverer of justice ❤
crazy how history repeats itself, this time hopefully people will learn and end the genocide. Free Palestine 🇵🇸✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Nelson Mandela died in 1985, that was the true Mandela.
He sold us out to the West thats why he had 4 years of negotians with De Klerk.
south africa is doing so much better now than under apartheid cough cough
And now South Africa is just another s*hole country…good job
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
One day the i*sraeli Apartheid will too end; Palestine❤️🇵🇸 will be free. & EVERYONE in the land, no matter their religious☪️✝️🕎 or racial backgrounds, will be EQUAL !!!
😢😢😢 I didn't know south Africans were put in reserves and 90% of their land stolen
free Palestine
Remember Palestine, Congo and Sudan.
Theu've done so well since majority rule.😂😂😂 basket case countries.
South Africa suffered from the same fire that burned the Palestinians. That is why South Africa was sympathetic to the Palestinians who suffer from apartheid and ethnic cleansing.
🇵🇸❤️🇿🇦
Colonists literally everywhere else: realized the British empire is dying, cut their losses and went back to the mainland
Colonists in South Africa: Tried to stay in charge long after even the British stopped supporting them, becoming pariahs.
Colonisers have done this to every country they invaded. Left them all broken, poor and with internal conflicts.
0:51 And you know they were bad cuz they fired the WHOLE bullet cuz they hated them so much
Soon Palestine will be free from the Zionist regime.
This is the violent history of the country that’s now accusing Israel of genocide.
Fun fact: it has been long suspected that South Africa conducted a joint nuclear test with Israel in 1979 (yes they were best buds in oppressing people).
The history is repeating itself in gaza, and israel playing the role of the white minority
We really live in a sick world. History continues to repeat itself and it’s because we’re not teaching the correct history or not learning it from accurate sources😔
Correction:
The first democratically elected president.
Mandela was weak, the only reason he’s applauded as a hero was because the white media (including TED talks) can say peace has been achieved, Giving us a symbol, A False sense of hope to squash their anger, oppressing further uprisings. The truth is Apartheid still exists in SA, nothing has changed and TED knows it!
As a south African I can confirm that this video is factual, I am extremely happy that segregation has ended and that finally we are truly a rainbow nation. Apartheid was truly the darkest side of south Africa. The effects of apartheid can most certainly be seen today but they are steadily being erased from history. And to the ted team: those king proteas at the end were a nice touch (the flowers)
When it comes to institutional racism: 🇺🇸🤝🏻🇿🇦
The upside for our closet racists is that this still prevails mostly in corporates, "so-called white" communities, and in the distribution of wealth
Correction: It did not end. It continues under the ANC.
South African blacks should read before the situations of 1960 Turkish coup,students rally, army's role in favour of students, intellectuals in positions and after the coup. That will make sense to them
Did you say end? 😔
Pffft. It's not like South Africa improved after the fall. In case,they got worse
South African history shockingly resembles American history
Now South-Africa can barely run its electricity complex, this is what happens when the races are equal
Now is the time to end apartheid and atrocities by the Israeli regime. Free Palestine!
It didnt end
Things are worse now in SA than it was 30 years ago
Bjp is the apartheid regime of india
The more the oppressed are pushed to a corner, the more passionate they come. This is something tyrants have always failed to understand.
Although i hate Apartheid and wish that it never happened, i feel this video was too one sided, but thats just my opinion, I'm not South African so i don't have any connections with apartheid, i could be wrong, but i feel like for this video to be more educational, i feel we should have a look at the perspective of the government during apartheid and the white. i was able to visit this beautiful country and was able to understand both sides of the story (not that there was really much of a story for the government) and i feel that it should be mentioned that the student protest wasn't peaceful, rather it was quite violent with these students burning down cars. This was a really good video and i learnt much, but in order to understand the story, you must look at both sides
Watermelons in the middle east: a symbol of resistance. Watermelons in other countries: Hey look, a new asmr smashing video of watermelons using a sledgehammer.
As an American, I thought Jim Crow was bad.
Thanks God blacks rule SA today and it is a prosperous country.
Now South Africa is a dump where they can’t even keep the electricity on.
After reading these comments, im surprised that our Indian 6th grade NCERT textbooks covered this topic whereas south african schools didn't.
K…. you run the country now and it's a sh&thole which is even seeing blacks leave in large and growing numbers.
i sang freeeee nelson Mandela and now free free Palestine 🇵🇸 i’m 46 my mum is a civil rights Activist from the republic of Ireland 🇮🇪
❤🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🙏
It ended in disaster if you've been paying attention.
this is a long held lie. it was not sanctions and international pressure that led to the end of the brutal regime… it was the end of the cold War that did it
Sounds like DeSantis florida
Fyi it happened for more than 28 years
