Because when you give an inch, they take a mile. They wanted it all, despite the fact they did little to nothing to build it, and they certainly are no maintaining it.

What is a bantustan?

A bantustan is any of ten former territories defined as homelands for black South Africans.


What is the South African bantu homeland?

A homeland is a place where the South Africans were forced when invaders came. They were in the inside of South Africa instead of the coast. ---- A homeland was an area within South Africa reserved for native Africans under the Apartheid policy of the South African government which was in government from about 1939 to 1993. It was in principle identical to the Reservations in the United States which are set aside for native Americans (American Indians). The areas were nominally self governing and land ownership was reserved for native Africans. This was done as a way of satisfying black demands for self government and preserving white control over the majority of the economically important areas of south Africa. Some homelands were granted independence from South Africa as separate states, but that independence was not recognised by any other country in the world and has now fallen away. In the end the homelands failed as a means of controlling black south africans. South Africa is now one country, under one government and homelands no longer exist. All that remains of it are large areas of tribal tenure land, where traditional land ownership and cultural practices are encouraged.

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.
