NATIONAL SENIOR CERTIFICATE EXAMINATION November 2020 HISTORY: PAPER II, 3 hours, 200 marks. The question paper consists of 8 pages and a Source Material Booklet of 8 pages, and is divided into three sections: Section A (individual-source analysis), Section B (source-based questions and knowledge-based questions), and Section C (source-based essay). Candidates must answer all questions, number their answers exactly as the questions are numbered, and leave a line open between answers.

Section A includes three questions:
1. Visual-source analysis of a photograph showing a group of children at a Black Panther Liberation School in December 1969,
2. Textual-source analysis of an extract from a book describing the ANC's call for a 'people's war' against the apartheid government in South Africa in the 1980s,
3. Current issue in the media, an extract from an article commenting on the Miss Universe Pageant and pageants in general.

Each question has multiple parts, requiring candidates to use their own knowledge, analyze sources, and provide quotes to support their answers. The questions assess candidates' understanding of historical concepts, their ability to analyze sources, and their critical thinking skills.
