South Africa offers a powerful and unforgettable experience.

This southern nation's history is marked by the apartheid era. A period of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination. Trevor Noah's book, Born a Crime, provides a personal lens into this period. His book detailing his experiences growing up as a mixed-race child in a society where just existing as mixed-race was illegal. His stories offer what it looks like living daily in a apartheid society and the resilience of those who lived through it.

"In a society built on institutionalized racism, race mixing doesn't merely challenge the system as unjust, it reveals the system as unsustainable and incoherent."
