 * =Brief Summary of Unit= ||
 * In this unit, you will examine the history of South Africa, as it developed from pre-colonial indigenous rule, to its colonization by European powers, to its emergence as an apartheid state, and finally to its present state in the post-apartheid era. Throughout this unit, we will use primary and secondary sources in an effort to get a fuller context of South Africa’s intricate history. Throughout the unit, we will discuss how the events of South Africa may relate to the experiences of Americans, and how biases in source material may influence the telling of historical events. Our class will culminate in group video projects, where you will have the opportunity to discuss your own perception of the history of South Africa.
