1996 Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report

The 1996 Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Report was a South African effort to confront the injustices of apartheid. It documented human rights abuses committed between 1960 and 1994, aiming to uncover truth, promote healing, and foster national unity. The report provided detailed accounts of violence, torture, and killings, offering amnesty to those who publicly confessed their crimes. Its goal was to acknowledge suffering, ensure accountability, and help South Africa move forward peacefully by addressing past injustices transparently.
