How did Stephen Biko fight against apartheid?

Stephen Biko was a Black South African who stood up for the wellbeing of his people and was strongly opinionated. He fought for black consciousness and was aiming to inspire and encourage black pride. Unlike Mandela Biko didn't scheme to bring down the apartheid he spread his word, Biko spent his time preaching to Black South Africans. In 1977 Biko died while held in prison, his death remained in the lives of the Black South Africans and the ANC used Biko's face as a campaign for the South African non-racial election.

Who designed rules that established apartheid in South Africa?

Since the arrival of European settlers in South Africa, there had been a sense of white supremecy since the black people were naturally the slaves until the formation of the British colony which abolished slavery. However the Afrikaner population generally opposed the abolishment of slave trade. In 1948 an Afrikaner party named Reunited National Party won the general elections and took the seat of power. They formed a coalition govern ment with the Afrikaner Party and from then on were called the National Party (NP). The government then made racism and white supremecy official by passing various legislation that provided a higher standard of living for whites and a lower standard of living for blacks. Citizens were classed according to their race groups. In the 1950s, the Group Areas Act was passed which allowed for the designation of municipal grounds for specific race groups. Several laws were passed after that making the country racially segregated on a physical basis. Apartheid was abolished in 1990. Apartheid also had partly Dutch origins. That's the word, and due to separate development of the Catholics and Protestants there. It also had partial Nazi German origins. Some enforcers of it researched Nazi German life. Also wanted South Africa to be an ally of Nazi Germany.An apartheid happened in South Africa because the White population has to greedy and wanted the Blacks who were the MAJORITY to remain with nopower at all so they put the black population out on reserves where it was dry so no produce could be grown and gave them pass's so that they could only come into urban areas if they had a pass (sort of like a passport).

How did apartheid affect the lives of black people in South Africa?

Apartheid caused many black South Africans to lose their jobs and livelihoods when they were forced to move to "black homelands". Black South Africans lost their South African citizenship and became citizens of their homeland. This allowed white South Africa to use them as cheap labor because, as non-citizens working in South Africa, the whites did not have to pay them a minimum wage or give them any legal rights.The land set aside for the black Africans was not the best land and became even worse due to years of erosion and mismanagement, thus causing widespread poverty in the black homelands. The black South Africans were not trained for taking care of the land and did not have the money needed to manage it properly. Forests were cut down to provide heat for homes and a way to cook meals.Many youths had to work and were not educated.Due to the overcrowding in the black homelands, there were problems with foot traffic and waste.And there was political violence due to the many factions fighting for control of the black homelands and fighting to end apartheid.
