How did Rhodesia, now known as Zimbabwe, decide who could vote and who couldn't? I tried to watch a couple of videos where their prime minister Ian Smith tried to explain the system but it's highly confusing because he said it wasn't racial. Was it based on your ethnicity, your income, etc.?

Many people, including most South Africans I've spoken to, often argue that South Africa had much lower crime rates during the apartheid era compared to now. Is this actually accurate? Historically, did the apartheid government not keep extensive crime statistics about black neighborhoods?
