Answer 2

One characteristic of South Africa's policy of apartheid is 'Nonwhites were forced to live in separate areas from the white minority'.

Option: (A)

Explanation:

• The notion of 'white supremacy' brought into practice by the white minority in South Africa gave birth to segregationist policies.

• These policies further strengthened to take the form of 'apartheid' which was the worst culmination of the segregationist mentality.

• Apartheid required the coloreds to live in separate areas other than where the whites lived and live a life devoid of most facilities provided by the state.
