I'm not surprised to see the author of that piece associate the educational failures of South Africans with Apartheid. Typical blame it on whitey mentality. There are plenty of countries surrounding South Africa that did not have Apartheid, and their literacy rates are similar or worse. It wasn't Apartheid that made them illiterate.
