Answer 2

I suppose the discrimination against many people who look like Arabs/Middle Easterners and Muslims in general after 9/11 and the events after it could be considered a global apartheid. Think of any recent racial discrimination common to most of the world.

Answer 3

Aparteid is racial discrimination taken to the farthest extremes.
