TEST YOURSELF|HISTORY

The Times reported this week on a white middle-class family in South Africa that moved into a 100-square-foot shack with no electricity or running water in a poor shantytown for one month. The Hewitt family undertook this experiment as an attempt to understand the kind of living conditions that millions of black South Africans endure every day as a legacy of South Africa's race-based apartheid system. 

Apartheid officially started in 1948. When did it end?

·         1963
·         1994
·         2010
·         It never ended; apartheid is still the official policy in South Africa.
