Source I am passionate about stories inspired by real events, especially when the facts they evoke left an indelible mark on history, as happened in South Africa for decades when apartheid policies legally governed racial segregation. By then, a minority of white people controlled power and imposed a regime that discriminated and segregated the black race, already historically mistreated by the prevailing racism in…More

They were caught and sentenced to jail for a bunch of years but being far from conformists, they started to think about escaping from the very beginning. In a society…More
