Nelson Mandela, Deputy President of the African National Congress of South Africa, raises his fist in the air while addressing the Special Committee Against Apartheid in the General Assembly Hall.
Apartheid consists of hundreds of laws that allow the ruling white minority in South Africa to segregate, exploit and terrorize the vast majority: Africans, mostly, but also Asians and Coloureds - people of mixed race. Under Apartheid, racist beliefs are enshrined in law and any criticism of the law is cruelly suppressed. A beach at Durban reserved for the whites.

Headline Decade for Action to Combat Racism and Racial Discrimination 
Caption Description Racial discrimination is a scourge as mortal to the human race as hunger and war, and has been condemned in numerous UN declarations, resolutions and agreements, including the Organization's Charter itself. The most recent effort by the Organization to extirpate the many deeply ingrained practices and opinions involved was to launch a Programme for a Decade for Action to Combat Racism and Racial Discrimination. The General Assembly approved the Programme in 1973 and decided that the Decade should begin on 10 December 1973, the anniversary of the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Nations are once again called on to implement economic, social, cultural, political and legislative measures to eliminate racial discrimination and to educate public opinion by all possible means to the evils of such discrimination.
