Best Answer

The pass-system of Apartheid South Africa was a system established by the Nationalist Government, where all Non-Whites had to carry a pass around with them in case they were stopped and checked by the South African Police. The fact that this applied exclusively to Non-Whites and was often used to harass them is a violation of equality before the law, which is a fundamental human right.

Racism is the intentional relegation of an ethnic community to a sub-human state, and thus is not, eo ipso, a "violation" of human rights, but it *is* indicative of an attitude which would *want* to violate human rights.
