On South Africa: Multiculturalism and Human Rights examines historical and contemporary multiculturalism, ethnicity, and identity in South Africa. South Africa has made legislative strides in righting the wrongs of apartheid, but significant challenges remain. Historically, colonial and apartheid racial discrimination policies categorized people according to race, including Bantu (Black), Colored (those who are not categorized as Bantu or white), and the minority White. Law created a racial hierarchy with white people at the top of the pyramid, diminishing rights, access, and “human-ness” moving down the hierarchy and placing colored people as a buffer between those categorized as white and black. The cleavages of this legacy remain evident in the lived realities of South Africans. Starting from your base in Cape Town, learn how race relations continue to be shaped by a range of contested histories, politics, resistance, activism, and the deployment of rights-based rhetoric. Journey to key sites such as the Steve Biko Centre, where you will study the Black Consciousness Movement, and Robben Island, the prison that held the late South African President Nelson Mandela.
