Revolt · Accepted Answer

The issue of race has fundamentally shaped South Africa's recent history through the implementation and eventual dismantling of apartheid. After gaining independence, the South African government established apartheid, a system of legal racial segregation and discrimination. Leaders like Nelson Mandela led a long struggle against this system, which eventually led to the end of minority rule. In 1994, a new constitution was adopted that guaranteed social and political equality for all races, marking a major turning point in the nation's history.
