anti-apartheid struggle

Fight against segregation

The anti-apartheid struggle was the decades-long campaign to end South Africa's system of racial segregation and white minority rule.

It encompassed protests, boycotts, armed resistance, and international pressure, culminating in the 1994 elections that brought Nelson Mandela to power.

She was active in the anti-apartheid struggle during her university years.
