The Bantu Authorities Act was one of the pillars of apartheid in South Africa during the apartheid era. This legislation was passed in 1951 and created the legal basis for the deportation of blacks into designated homeland reserve areas. This Act was augmented by the Bantu Homelands Citizens Act of 1970.
