Political System

Although black citizens had the right to vote in the United States, discrimination tactics, such as the poll tax, often hindered voting rights.

Under apartheid, South Africa’s black citizens were barred from voting for many years.

Economic Opportunity

Black citizens in the southern United States received an inferior education, which limited their career choices. They often had a difficult time starting a business or finding quality jobs as well.

Under apartheid in South Africa, black citizens had a difficult time finding quality work. The video showed an example of how a black man worked on a farm for a month, and the white owner refused to pay him.

Social Conditions

Discrimination prevented African Americans from engaging in their rights to protest peacefully. Segregation and discrimination allowed violence to be carried out on African Americans, often without punishment, particularly in the southern U.S.

Similar to discrimination in the United States, apartheid allowed and even promoted violence against blacks. Many native South Africans lived in poverty. One of the videos showed how South African blacks were treated like second class citizens compared white South Africans.
