By the use of guns and brute force.

The above answer is simplistic and one sided. Apartheid was a political and social system that control the whole aspect of life in South Africa. Laws made it difficult if not impossible for blacks to move freely thereby dooming them to a tribal life with few opportunities to excel in life. Migrant worker policies destroyed the fabric of family life in black families. Group Areas Act made it impossible for blacks to live where they choose. A schooling system designed to keep students ignorant and virtually uneducated. The list goes on and on but the point is that force was but one strategy used by the Apartheid regime.

During apartheid who could vote?

During apartheid in South Africa, only white citizens were allowed to vote. The racially discriminatory laws established a political system that excluded the majority of the population, particularly Black South Africans, Coloureds, and Indians, from participating in elections. This exclusion was a fundamental aspect of the apartheid regime, which enforced racial segregation and oppression. Voting rights were only expanded in the early 1990s, leading to the end of apartheid and the establishment of a multiracial democracy.

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.
