Headline Apartheid: the Tyranny of Racism Made Law

Caption Description In white-ruled South Africa, black people are denied their basic human and political rights. Their work is exploited and their lives are segregated. In 1982 almost one million of them were forced to immigrate to Swaziland without option. That is the tyranny of apartheid, of racism made law, of a system under which a small white minority holds all economic and political power, and dictates how and where the large black majority lives, works, and dies. It is this system of institutionalized racial discrimination which defies the principles of the UN Charter and of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that has set South Africa on a collision course with the rest of the world.
Squatters near Cape Town. Many black women risk a precarious existence in such camps in order to be near their menfolk. The men must have permits to work in the ""white"" areas - actually 87% of the country. But their families are considered ""superfluous appendages"", and are not allowed to live with them: they are supposed to fend for themselves in the remote and neglected areas of the country called ""homelands"".
