Nationalism in Africa

        During the 1900s, almost every
         part of Africa was a European
         Colony.
           The few economical booms, were
            exploited by colonizers for their
            own benefit.

        During the 1920s a new
         generation of leaders, proud of
         their unique heritage, struggled to
         stop imperialism and restore
         Africa for Africans.
White Africa

 In South Africa, locals were forced to
  work in mines and plantations.

 In Kenya and Rhodesia, white settlers
  forced the Africans off the best land.

 African farmers were forced to grow
  cash crops, like cotton instead of food.
       This led to famines in some regions.

 During WWI, more than a million
  Africans had fought for the
  Europeans. They had hoped this
  would give them more rights and
  opportunities… Most of the times the
  situation remained the same or
  worsened.
Resisting Colonial Rule

 Western-educated
  Africans criticized imperial
  rule.
 They had degrees, yet the
  best jobs went to whites.
 Calling for self-
  determination, they
  condemned the colonial
  system.
 Socialism found a growing
  audience.
Racial Segregation

    In early 20th century South Africa, whites
     tightened their grip, ton ensure
     economical, political and social supremacy:
       New laws restricted better paying jobs to
        whites only, low pay jobs for blacks.
       Africans had to carry IDs.
       Forced to live in crowded “reservations”.
       In 1948, Apartheid, came into effect.
             Apartheid: policy of rigid segregation.

    Like other African countries, new
     movements, looking to bring down these
     unfair laws, They didn’t have any effect on
     the SA government, but it built a base for
     future movements.
Worksheet: Israeli Apartheid

   BACKGROUND:

   The State of Israel's treatment of the Palestinians has been compared by
    United Nations investigators, human rights groups and critics of Israeli
    policy to South Africa's treatment of non-whites during its apartheid era.

   Israel has also been accused of committing the crime of apartheid. Critics
    of Israeli policy say that "a system of control" in the Israeli-occupied West
    Bank, including Jewish-only settlements, separate roads, military
    checkpoints, discriminatory marriage law, the West Bank barrier, use of
    Palestinians as cheap labour, Palestinian West Bank enclaves, inequities
    in infrastructure, legal rights, and access to land and resources between
    Palestinians and Israeli residents in the Israeli-occupied territories
    resembles some aspects of the South African apartheid regime, and that
    elements of Israel's occupation constitute forms of colonialism and of
    apartheid, which are contrary to international law.
Worksheet: Israeli Apartheid

              Answer the following, in two
               paragraphs, after reading
               the background and your
               sheet:
                 Compare African apartheid
                  with Israel’s system.
                 Give your personal opinion
                  on why do you think
                  Israelis do this and if you
                  think it’s right or wrong.
