We went to the Apartheid Museum in Joburg. We learned a TON about what South Africa was like before, during, and after Apartheid.
Apartheid: The system of segregation or discrimination on grounds of race in force in South Africa. 1948-1991.
Apartheid ended in 1994...only 15 years ago. The country has come a long way since then.
"To be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that enhances the freedom of others." Nelson Mandela
There was a Nelson Mandela exhibit there too. It gave the life story of Madiba including all of the triumphs and tragedies.
