South Africa’s Bantu Education Act and related educational policies during the apartheid era were opposed and became a focus of resistance. Black South African students boycotted classes and held marches and demonstrations to protest against various educational policies. The 1976 Soweto Uprising, in which Black South African students protested against the imposition of Afrikaans as a medium of instruction, was a significant resistance event in and of itself and also spurred similar protests across the country.
