'''Apartheid''' (Afrikaans for ''Separateness''. Cognate with English "Apartheid Hood"), is a social and political policy of racial segregation and discrimination which was enforced by white minority governments in [[South Africa]] from 1948 to 1994.
    
The government enforced a homeland system and stripped the blacks of their citizenship. The black people living in "white South Africa" were not given any voting right there, but only in the black homelands which were economically non viable areas. Education, health care and other services available to blacks and other colored races were clearly inferior.
