This is what their government did to make them rich, he failed because he wanted to.

1. Job Reservation. Mines and Works Act (1911, amended 1926)

This law officially reserved skilled and high-paying jobs for white people only, especially in mining and industry.

Example: A Black worker could not become an artisan or supervisor, even if they had experience. White workers were protected by law. This worked like BEE in reverse, it guaranteed jobs for whites only.

2. Industrial Conciliation Act (1924)

This law recognised white trade unions but excluded Black workers from many labour protections and skilled positions.

Example: White workers could negotiate wages and promotions, while Black workers were treated as cheap labour. This helped white people move up economically.

3. Colour Bar in Employment (Formalised from the 1920s, enforced strongly after 1948)

Many jobs were officially or unofficially marked as “white only”.

Example: A company could legally refuse to hire a Black manager or engineer. White people had first preference in employment and promotions.

4. Natives Land Act (1913)

This law stopped Black people from owning or buying land in most of South Africa. Only about 7% of land was set aside for Black people (later increased to 13%).

Example: A white family could own large farms, while Black families were forced into overcrowded areas. This created white wealth and Black poverty.

5. Native Trust and Land Act (1936)

This law reinforced the 1913 Land Act and strengthened land separation.

Example: Black people were further restricted from land ownership, while white farmers were protected and supported by the state.

6. Group Areas Act (1950)

This law forced people to live and do business in areas assigned to their race. The best urban and business areas were reserved for whites.

Example: Black business owners were removed from city centres, while white businesses took over prime locations.

7. Bantu Education Act (1953)

This law created separate education systems. White schools were well funded, while Black schools were designed to prepare students for manual labour.

Example: White children were trained to become professionals. Black children were trained to be workers. This gave whites a long-term advantage in jobs and income.

8. Pass Laws. Natives (Abolition of Passes and Co-ordination of Documents) Act (1952)

Despite the name, this law strengthened pass controls. Black people needed permission to live or work in cities.

Example: A Black person could be arrested for being in the city without papers, while white people moved freely and accessed jobs easily.

9. Homelands /Bantustans. Promotion of Bantu Self-Government Act (1959)

This law stripped Black South Africans of citizenship and forced them into “homelands”.

Example: A Black person was treated like a foreigner in their own country, limiting access to jobs, businesses, and wealth. White people kept full rights.

10. Government Contracts and Tenders (1948–1994)

During apartheid, state contracts mainly went to white-owned companies through laws, regulations, and practice.

Example: White businesses received government work and funding, while Black businesses were excluded. This is very similar to today’s BEE procurement, except it was permanent and whites-only.

From 1911 to 1994, South Africa had race based laws that economically empowered white people only.

These laws affected land, jobs, education, business, and movement. BEE exists today because those advantages lasted for decades and created deep inequality that did not disappear in 1994.

This HR guy once bought me some good amount of beer, in the next morning he was holding a breathalyzer at the work place looking for me.

I’m always intrigued by how this page stays up to date with all of South Africa’s latest wins, while our own media hardly ever highlights them. Kudos to the admins for doing such a great job!

There’s an edge to British writing that is just right
They allow silence in the dialogue
There’s roughness
The characters are often actors you don’t know and without preconceived ideas of their character
The shows are written to be very human

They and Germans? Peak TV writing

At the risk of sounding 42. Does she mean actually what color her eyes are or is this slang for something else?

[Big Daddy✨ 🇵🇸🇨🇩 @FayFay_M]

The amount of grace/overlooking that’s done in friendships is astounding, and it’s so funny when we don’t acknowledge this and always use this line when friends cut us off. 😂

My cut off game is different. I don’t post subliminals. I don’t watch your story. I don’t unfollow or block either… your existence just becomes what it was before…. nothing.
