Apartheid (noun)
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/apartheid
- racial segregation (specifically a former policy of segregation,political and economic discrimination against non-European groups in the Republic of South Africa.)
In “No Place for self-pity,No Room for fear” Toni Morrison stated “The Nation could never have existed or flourished in 1940s Spain or 2014 Syria or apartheid south Africa, or 1930s Germany.”
I chose this word because it stood out to me and it really gave a deeper understanding of what the author Toni Morrison is trying to explain.
