Answer:

After the National Party gained power in South Africa in 1948, its all-white government immediately began enforcing existing policies of racial segregation. Under apartheid, nonwhite South Africans (a majority of the population) would be forced to live in separate areas from whites and use separate public facilities.

An effect of the law was to exclude non-whites from living in the most developed areas. Many non-whites were forcibly removed for living in the wrong areas. In addition, the non-white majority was given a much smaller area of the country. Subsequently, the white minority owned most of the nation's land.

Apartheid refers to the implementation and maintenance of a system of legalized racial segregation in which one racial group is deprived of political and civil rights. Apartheid is a crime against humanity punishable under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

In 1977 the problems suffered by both Ndebele groups were compounded by the granting of "independence" to the territory of Bophuthatswana, under the leadership of Lucas Mangope. This process had begun some time earlier, in the late 1960s, when Tswana vigilantes began a programme of ethnic cleansing in Garankuwa, a black dormitory suburb of Pretoria. They began by ordering Ndebele residents to leave the township, but soon extended this to include all non-Tswana families. In time this spread to other areas, and by the time Bophuthatswana was established in 1977, non-Tswana residents were being denied identification documents, trading licenses, access to housing, social benefits and mother-language education. This persecution was especially severe against Ndebele citizens who, unlike members of other ethnic groups, did not have the benefit of a "homeland" they could move to under the provisions of Pretoria apartheid planning. Understandably Tswana chauvinism, layered over the existing system of white bigotry and Apartheid racism, led many Ndebele, Northern and Southern, to organise themselves along ethnic lines.

This process of ethnic separation needs to be understood in the larger context of Apartheid planning which initially only provided for the racial segregation of the country's four main groups, so-called European, African, Indian and Coloured. One of Apartheid's main concerns was inter-racial miscegenation, most specifically between whites and any of the three other groups, and although the Immorality laws prohibited inter-racial mixing between all four groups, the only times when these were applied was when one of the parties was white.

Ethnic separation, on the other hand, extended the scope of such chauvinism to inter-black relationships, and allowed each group to initiate its own programmes of ethnic cleansing. Needless to say, parallel developments were also taking place in the Transkei, and were soon to spread to Venda and Ciskei upon their own granting of "independence" and Lebowa and Gazankulu when they were granted "self-determination". It is not difficult to see therefore, how, by 1990, when the Nationalist government and the ANC began a process of rapprochement and pacification, the country had reached the brink of a racial and ethnic holocaust.

It's definitely not in a theocracy: those usually favour the majorities.

Also migrant labors don't specifically favour minorities.

Now, between democracies and command economies the choice is very hard, as it depends more on the specific country. So for example in many places the role of the minorities rose in command economies, since they went against the patriarchy (in China this was the case for example, the role of women in China improved drastically, while women and minorities are still struggling in Japan, which is a democracy). On the other hand, Nazi Germany was also a command economy, and yet it was very bad for minorities

The poem is organized around a contrast of two kinds of lovers: the ''laity'' (8) and, as their implied opposite, the priesthood
ziro4ka [17]

In the poem "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" by John Donne, the opposing terms are metaphorical. Donne is stating that their love is spiritual, not just physical. While the "laity" type of love is formed by people, the "priesthood" type is considered an unseen force. Laity love requires physical interaction, while priesthood love lasts beyond the human senses. The author states that because their love is spiritual, and they are one, when they separate they can only expand it.

He urges her to not cry because any sign of mourning will welcome outsiders to interrupt their love, and see his parture as temporary. Donne wrote this to express in faith in the long-distance relationship, and that she should not mourn him leaving.

raketka [301]

Answer:

White matter

Explanation:

Brain work like a computer. It is easier to understand the brain. White matter is the substance that connects all the matter and transmits the message. This is the nerve tissue in the brain that contains nerve fibers. The fibers connect the nerve fibers and these nerve fibers are covered by a myelin sheath.  

Myelin sheath help in improving the speed of information from one neuron to another neuron. The myelin speeds up the signal between cells and the signal cells which sends and receives cells.
