The Things I Noticed by L.K.

  1. The most beautiful thing that I learned is the the ENTIRE world stood up and worked together to stop Apartheid, no matter what arguments they'd had in the past.
  2. The most interesting thing that I learned is that 4 million whites ruled over 23 million blacks for 46 years!
  3. The most troubling thing that I learned is that in an uprising of an "all-blacks" school, more than 270 children were massacred!
  4. The most mysterious thing that I learned is that Stephen Biko mysteriously died and then the white government declared that it was a freak accident of falling down stairs, when eye-witness accounts saw Stephen Biko get killed.
  5. The most difficult thing that I learned is that apartheid existed at all!
  6. The most exciting thing that I learned is that the world's leaders worked as one to stop the South African government!
  7. The most dangerous thing that I learned is that is was deemed a law to have racial segregation!
  8. The most tragic thing that I learned is that more than 270 children out of 400 children in a black school were killed!
  9. The most compelling thing that I learned is that apartheid went on for 46 years before finally stopping!
  10. The most fascinating thing that I learned is that blacks weren't allowed to enter the same stores as whites!
  11. The most devastating thing that I learned is that blacks were beaten and tortured, if not killed for speaking their minds!
  12. The most precious thing that I learned is that apartheid finally came to an end in South Africa!
