Apartheid Museum
Northern Parkway, Gold Reef Rd, Ormonde, Johannesburg South, 2001
Museum recreating apartheid-era segregation through a randomly assigned entrance, before tracing the system's rise and fall.
This guide to the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg begins at the door, where a ticket randomly assigns you a race and sends you through one of two entrances that don't rejoin until you're inside. From there it traces an unlikely thread: the family business behind the money that built the museum, made decades earlier in a very different industry. Listen for how a casino license, years later, turned that fortune toward remembering what it once profited from.
