43. Starter #4
Imagine this The year is You are a high school student. Your social studies teacher is talking about, “What happens when different cultures meet?” He says one thing that can happen is something called, “Apartheid.” He explains that it means, “Apartness,” and that it is based on this goal: “Different cultures within the same society live “separate but equal” lives.
Your teacher goes on to tell you that the country of South Africa has made this a law. That country has three main racial groups—Blacks, Whites, and “Coloureds” (mixed race)—and they agree to stay in their own areas for everything—houses, shopping, schools, restaurants, etc.
Then your teacher explains that not everyone in South Africa likes this system. As a matter of fact, some of the people there are protesting it. But whenever someone speaks out strongly against Apartheid, that person is put in jail or prison. In 1986, their country does not have any laws to protect “freedom of speech.”
But, your country, the U.S. does have freedom of speech, and you are upset that people in South Africa are being treated this way. So what will you do? Is there anything that you can do?

44. Starter #3
Last month, in February, we began watching a movie that relates to this very topic—apartheid. The movie we watched was a Disney made-for-TV production, and it was based on a true story.
The characters you see are based on real people. The plot that is unfolding is based on something that really did happen. The two main characters in this story are only a few years older than you.
Apartheid was never officially practiced in our country, but it was practiced in the home country of a teenager named Mahree, who comes from South Africa to visit the U.S. as an exchange student.
The plot that unfolds in this movie is very close to what really did happen. An American teenager, named Piper, begs her parents to arrange for them to house a foreign exchange student. Meanwhile, in South Africa, another young teenager, named Mahree, is begging her parents to let her go to the U.S. Watch how this plays out
