The correct answers are:

A), C), and D).

Explanation:

Blacks in SouthAfrica were suppressed solely based on their colour. It was very difficult for black South Africans to own a landed property, get quality education, and land good jobs. In contrast, the government at that time intentionally worked to ensure that the economic standing of poorer whites improved.

According to research put forward by Terence Moll, "the apartheid economy failed." His work demonstrates that state of apartheid in South Africa created and perpetuated poverty over most of its history.
