Who were the different groups involved in the apartheid?

Dutch Boers, also called Afrikaner, lived in Africa since the 1600s. British people moved into South Africa and lived in the Cape Colony in the 1880s when rich gold mines were discovered. The white minorities became wealthy and gained enough power to create Apartheid. The thousands of laws handed political and economic power to the wealthy, racist, white minority. Steve Biko was a significant member of the "Black Consciousness Movement" and Nelson Mandela largely influenced the anti-apartheid movement.


How did apartheid start in South Africa?

The term Apartheid was introduced during the 1948 as part of the election campaign by DF Malan's Herenigde Nasionale Party(HNP - 'Reunited National Party'). But racial segregation had been in force for many decades in South Africa. In hindsight, there is something of an inevitability in the way the country developed its extreme policies. When the Union of South Africa was formed on 31 May 1910, Afrikaner Nationalists were given a relatively free hand to reorganize the country's franchise according to existing standards of the now-incorporated Boer republics, the Zuid Afrikaansche Repulick (ZAR - South African Republic or Transvaal) and Orange Free State. Non-Whites in the Cape Colony had some representation, but this would prove to be short-lived.

Non-Whites in the Cape Colony had some representation, but this would prove to be short-lived.This however only says HOW Apartheid began. The true meaning was because the white South Africans found it difficult to teach their technology to the local Black population and had to enforce a system so that they didn't mix with them. At the time (1948) around the world Black people (even in America) were considered second class, but here it lastes until 1994 because the white population were a minority ironically. If Apartheid did end (which is did) they feared that the uneducated black population would rush into towns and cities and not know how to properly function in those types of daily conditions. For example they tried lighting fires in their newly bought apartments as a method to keep warm. Obviously this didn't work. This has actually happened.

What effects do you get from moderate central canal stenosis due to a broad-based right paracentral 4mm disc protrusion at C5-6?

There are a lot of folks walking around with a c-spine herniated nucleus pulposis (HNP) and don't know it until for some reason an MRI is ordered...!! What would tell me to refer you to my boss (a neurosurgeon) would be an MRI that demosntrated moderate-severe compression of the spinal cord, that you have symptoms of upper extremety wasting/weakness of the muscles, inability to work with your arms above your head for any length of time AND abnormal nerve conduction studies (NCV's & EMG's) of the upper extremeties. A neurologist often could be the referring physician as well... The key is an advanced degree of spinal cord compression AND those symptoms I mentioned above... A neurosurgeon is the final authority as to whether you need surgery --or not...
