    No can do...it is not a word. Did you mean apartheid? Apartheid is the South Afrikaans word meaning the legalized segregation of the black population from the white population in South Africa.

  • 10-12 for spelling Apartheid incorrect ... a harsh  sentence I know but I thought a message should be sent.

    No matter how much Trump supporters insist it's necessary to "make America great again", we aren't going to create an American version of Apartheid.

    We already pretty much have.  Just not as noticeable.   (we have not been stupid enough to give it a title and announce it is legal)
