About This Lesson

Democracy requires vigilant citizen participation, virtuous leadership, and a commitment to transparency. Like many American colonists, South Africans also longed and fought for democracy. To gain a better understanding of life without the daily freedoms we frequently take for granted, students will “experience” life under minority rule in a group exercise and examine primary source materials to compare and contrast liberty and oppression throughout history in South Africa and the United States.
