Yet another poignant and informative video
A small request to ted ed, please discuss more hindu stories and indian culture in general! Think the chola empire or mauryans, women's high role in Vedic india etc.
and even provide a unbiased view on the mughal rule, or hindu/sikh position in Pakistan currently.
Sharmastance and kal. chakra are some ig accounts extremely informative on the same.
Thank you.
Also free Palestine

I wonder how the likes of Mandela, Mbeki, Ramaposa, etc. got their education from if there weren't any.
I wonder why there are shacks now but none then.
I wonder why there were railway and bus systems then to take us to work and back but not now.
I wonder how Soweto and Alex got their schools, shopping malls, electicitu grids, water, and sewage services from if those town were not raken care of.

This is what happens when they, rhe ruling class teach you how Christianity was about love and forgiving, stripping you of all anger and ability to fight back in the process. That all problems will be solve by praying and protest.
Remember. Peaceful Protest will only make you an easy target.

South Africa during apartheid: Considered the manufacturing capital of Africa. Low crime rate. Clean water and electricity.
South Africa after apartheid: More than 50% unemployment. Power outages for most of the day. Crumbling economy. Failed state.
There's a lesson here.

Palestinians in Arab countries are literally second class citizens forced to live in refugee camps and aren't given citizenship so they can continue their fight with Israel.
That's an actual apartheid.

Friendly reminder that israel gave the arabs in the cities they coquered full citizenship and rights. Those who remained outside of the country arent citizens of the country (obviously) and therefor don't have citizenship.

You know, I personally don t understand why Afrikaans is still spoken. It originates from Dutch, the people that colonized them. Is there just no native south african tongue before that time left?

A reminder to all the pro-Palestinians in the comments: apartheid does not fit the definition when the occupied people refused offers of peace and their own state and started war time after time

People in the comments compare Palestine to an occupied country as if the history and culture of their people is not a call for war and murder throughout history and repeated refusals for peace

Shamefully it has not ended. And is still an issue to various degrees across the world, under new or different names. But most notably today with The Suffering of the Palestinian people.

If you ignore religion, the various races who call themselves Palestinians have been living in Palestine for over a hundred years until the European settlers arrived and invaded around 1948

Funny how Israel stole Nazism and Apartheid to keep their 78 year reign of terror going. Worse, they have a willing middle class who lives in a bubble of hate. Ghastly.

Pretty similar to what happened in Palestine, decades of suffering at the hands of the European invaders radicalised some of the Palestinians.

Now that Apartheid has ended, we can see the progress made in the shining utopia of cultural diversity that is South Africa. Happy Hanukkah, everyone!

In a world full of censorship and external influences TED ed knows how to get the message conveyed. Don't let another Apartheid happen?

I hope one day we get to speak of Palestine's history like this where they finally get to be portrayed as the victims of this genocide.

Apartheid ending was also the end of South Africa. Look at what equality has done. May the ghost of ever dead boer haunt forever
