South Africa has one of the continent's biggest and most developed economies. 

Up until 1994 it was ruled by a white minority government, which enforced a separation of populations with its policy called apartheid. 

The apartheid government eventually negotiated itself out of power after decades of international isolation, armed opposition and mass protests. 

The democratically-elected leadership encouraged reconciliation and set about redressing social imbalances, but the economy still struggles.

In an NPR recording broadcasted in 2008, Nelson Mandela’s dream of a “Rainbow society in South Africa” was coined as "the dream of a society without tensions, with more equality and in which white and black people could live side by side".

The camera focused on portraits of babies, youngsters, elderly people or a man shaving and looking at himself in a broken mirror.

In 1975, Doctor Rampele visited Donald Woods, the Editor of a national newspaper and told him to meet with Steve Biko, a prominent leader with a vision for a South Africa at peace in a democratic regime.
