The economy of Johannesburg depended upon hundreds of thousands of cheap black workers who performed most of the semi-skilled and unskilled work, and which forced the government to make some exceptions to apartheid in order to keep Johannesburg functioning as South Africa's economic capital.Brogan, Patrick The fighting never stopped: a comprehensive guide to world conflicts since 1945, New York: Vintage Books, 1989 page 86. In the 1950s, the government began a policy of building townships for blacks outside of Johannesburg to provide workers for Johannesburg.

Endeavour Foundation was founded in 1951 by a group of parents of children with an intellectual disability.

In its first two years of operation, the organisation registered 300 children with an intellectual disability.

Campbell continued playing guitar in his youth, with no formal training, and practiced when he was not working in the cotton fields.

Women outnumbered men in every age group besides 15 and under; the imbalance was most severe in the 25-39 age group, with only 71 men for every 100 women. This gender gap is mainly the result of the so-called astronaut family phenomenon, also seen among Chinese New Zealanders and Koreans in other countries, in which male heads of households who found their earning power decreased after emigration returned to their country of origin while their wives and children remained in the destination country. Although many heads of households qualified for New Zealand immigration due to their professional qualifications, they find only unskilled work is available to them due to their poor English skills. The high levels of unemployment among Koreans in New Zealand mean that their median personal income was only NZ$5,700, according to Department of Labour statistics.
