- nonviolent demonstrations against apartheid did not work, because they allowed the South African government to respond with violence against Africans. Although Mandela was ready to try every possible technique to destroy apartheid peacefully, he began to feel that nonviolent resistance would not change conditions in the end.
  
  Mandela wanted to end the apartheid with nonviolent acts, but that did not work out so well. Nothing was changed with the peacefull attempts Mandela tried to make because the government was responding violently.
- All-African National Action Council.
  
  The all- african national action council was an illegal opperation/movement to sabotage the apartheid governement.
- The new government that Mandela and deKlerk established was democratic, and allowed rights to all colored people. They made a new constitution.

- According to a poll released last week by the highly regarded Institute for Justice and Reconciliation, 31 percent of South Africans believe that race relations have not improved since the end of apartheid, and 16 percent actually think they have gotten worse.
- But 15 years later, that happily-ever-after ending is a long way off, and the ideal of a rainbow nation now seems little more than a deft turn of phrase. According to a poll released last week by the highly regarded Institute for Justice and Reconciliation, 31 percent of South Africans believe that race relations have not improved since the end of apartheid, and 16 percent actually think they have gotten worse. (About 50 percent said relations had improved.)
  
  since the ending of the apartheid, south africa(colored) dont feel like their human rights have been improved. some think that race relations have gotten worse, and others think its improved/not improved.
- In his inauguration address, Nelson Mandela spoke of a covenant of his own, longing for "a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world." Viewers of the new American movie "Invictus" might be tempted to conclude that such racial harmony prevailed in the aftermath of a long-shot upset in a rugby game.
  
  Nelson Mandela wanted peace, and equality. He was for many of the enlightenment ideas. Wanted colored and white to live together.
- But while South Africa is the continent's wealthiest country, income inequality here remains among the worst in the world. About 29 percent of blacks are unemployed, compared with 5 percent of whites, according to recent figures. When statistics include discouraged workers -- dropouts from the labor force -- the jobless rate climbs to nearly 50 percent. Most of the unemployed have never held a single job, according to a study by a panel of international economists.
  
  Just because South Africa is one of the wealthiest counry, many South Africans are unemployed and the income inequality is bad.

allAfrica.com: South Africa: Land Reform Moves Slowly in Post-Apartheid Era 4

- The vast majority of agricultural land is still owned by whites. Black landowners tend to have tiny plots in the former homelands.
- One crucial component of land reform is the restitution of land to people who were displaced under white minority rule, which is provided for by legislation passed by the country's democratically-elected government.
  
  One thing that South Africa hopes to do is redistribute land to those who had it taken away by white rule. According to Commison on the restitution of land rights, 94% of the land claims have been settled.
- Notably, however, most of those claims were settled by a cash payout rather than the transfer of land back to its original owners.
  
  Instead of giving the land back to the original owners, cash has been given instead.
- much of that redistribution has not successfully alleviated food security or poverty. In fact, numerous farming projects have been poorly supported and collapsed within a couple of years.
  
  Although land redistribution may seem like a way to fix poverty and grow food, the farmers are usually too poor to support their agricultural bussiness on their land.

- As early as 1993, the World Bank warned that if the government did not undertake "a major restructuring of the rural economy centered on significant land transfers and smaller scale agricultural production units," the country would face the danger of rural violence and possibly civil war.
- restitution that assessed and processed claims from people who said they were unfairly forced off their land under apartheid, and redistribution, which transferred state-owned other land to formerly disadvantaged communities.
  
  these are the two ways inwhich south africa's government chose to address the problem of land redistribution.
