In her speech "1959: What is Apartheid?" Gordimer introduces several ideas that explain her views on apartheid. First, she argues that apartheid is morally wrong and must come to an end. She thinks all men are brothers, and apartheid prevents them from seeing their shared humanity. She also believes that apartheid has improved the lives of White South Africans by excluding Black South Africans from many areas of life and limiting their opportunities. Finally, she believes that the only purpose of apartheid is to protect white interests in the country.
