JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Dozens of American students from a Brooklyn charter school are visiting South Africa to explore African cultures and South Africa's journey from racial tension to reconciliation. The Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood is known for its African-American heritage.
The trip is a chance to expose the children to African cultures and South Africa's journey from racial tension to reconciliation.
