    of the biggest impacts it had on New Zealand was that not only did the tour bring about awareness to the discrimination happening under apartheid in South Africa, but it made us rethink about our own race relations. It increased awareness of how Maori people were being treated here in New Zealand. Some people related the struggles endured by black South Africans with racism here.

    History Task: How apartheid affected people’s lives and how they responded For the task I will be focusing mainly on the Separate Amenities Act.

Although the novel takes place in Post-Apartheid South Africa, the effects of the system are still present…

    This drug is one of the most horrifying things I’ve researched because the website is full of convincing claims and statistics that are completely fake.

I can’t imagine a nonverbal autistic child being given MMS baths and enemas without wondering how all of these administrators are not in jail for torture or medical malpractice. It…

I chose Nelson Mandela because in…

    equity for Africa. Surviving through obstacles with no assurance of validation, one has no choice but to express their emotions through objects rather than to another individual who is suffering similar. In the film Amandla! A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony, South Africa’s struggle for liberation was depicted. The film illustrates the concept of songs being symbols of expressing spirituality and liberation. These songs were utilized to help them cope with the oppression distributed within South…
