Apartheid was a way of segregating blacks and mixed races in South Africa in the 20th century. Apartheid was based on laws, such as those requiring blacks to carry identity passes at all times. Nelson Mandela became the face of anti-apartheid. After being jailed for nearly 30 years, Mandela eventually became the first black South African president after the public eventually gave way to human rights activists. Since then apartheid laws have been overturned.
The now defunct racial policy of South Africa called apartheid provided that society in that country separate races. Under this policy whites, Africans, Asiatic, and socalled "Colored" populations lived apart. It has since been abolished. Many social scientists wondered why this took so long. One thought was that despite the moral & political problems of apartheid, South Africa was so prosperous that Africans from nearby nations emigrated to S.A.
The blacks, coloured and Indians fought against the apartheid system since 1950. They launched protest marches and strikes. The African National Congress (ANC) was the umbrella organization that led the struggle against the policies of segregation. Many worker unions and the Communist Party were also included. A number of sensitive whites also joined the ANC to oppose apartheid and played a lead role in the struggle. Several countries denounced apartheid as unjust and racist.
The headquarters of the ANC were based in England as the party had been banned in South Africa. Many marches and protests, demanding the release of Nelson Mandela, were also held in England.Also, Nelson Mandela was a terrorist, and created/organised many bombing raids against innocent white civilians, which is why he was imprisoned. He only later turned to a more peaceful tactic to fighting apartheid.
Most white people remained "neutral" to Apartheid, since they feared the backlash from the government which was known to commit horrible acts of violence against protesters to the various segregative laws. Many still were in agreement with it, since there was (and still is) a mind set that said that all non-whites were inferior to white people and therefore did not deserve the same rights as white people. This was also, in part, fueled by various popular denominations of the Christian church in South Africa. A small number of white people (such as Helen Suzman, Pieter Dirk Uys) publicly spoke out against the Apartheid government.
No, Apartheid was a policy of segregation introduced into law by the National Party of South Africa after winning the white only election of 1948. Nelson Mandela has fought against the policy of Aparthied since he joined the ANC.
The African National Congress, or ANC have been in power for 16 years since the end of Apartheid (time of segregation)

Prior to 1990 apartheid reigned over the South African landscape. However, since its apolishment Blacks, Whites and all hues of the spectrum have been integrated into what is now termed the 'Rainbow Nation'. Having said that the legacy of apartheid can still be seen in the inability to self govern, inadequate infrastructure, high levels of unemployment and poverty. In summary, South Africa is no longer an apartheid nation but its legacy still lives on.

Education reform is the name given to the goal of changing public education. Historically reforms have taken different forms because the motivation of reformers have differed . However since 1980's education reforms has been focused on changing the existing system from one focused on input to one focused on output (I.e; student achievement). In united states education reforms encourages and acknowledges public education as the primary source K-12 education for American youth. Education reforms desire to make public education into a market ( in the form of an input and output systems) , where accountability creates high stakes from curriculum standards tied to standardized test.As a result of this input-output system , equality has been conceptualized has an end point , which is often evidenced by an achievement gap among diverse populations. This conceptualization of education reforms is based on the market logic of competition.Y
The richest South African family is Jewish (Oppenheimers) and they've been the wealthiest since at least before apartheid started. They did not do much to fight apartheid, they just rode the political wave and positioned themselves so that they'd still be making money which ever way the tides went.
They haven't improved that much, sadly. Hospitals and schools have actually suffered since the fall of apartheid. I have heard some of the older black generation say that they wished the white government were back in power. They feel the country's infrastructure was better maintained many years ago.

In Africa the lack of education causes many problems. This includes the spread of disease and famine, because much needed help with learning techniques is lost through the lack of education.
