Apartheid was dismantled in 1994, but today, South Africa remains the most unequal country in the world. Filmmaker, Tara Moore, illuminates why this is so, by connecting present-day inequalities to their historical roots. She tackles the question of accountability amongst people with historical privilege. In a refreshingly honest confession, the grandson of the ‘Architect of Apartheid’ discloses how he grapples with his legacy and the work he is doing to counter it.

Tara Moore

Born a crime under Apartheid (when inter-racial relations, let alone marriages, were illegal), and raised bouncing between South Africa and Connecticut, Tara Moore uses her diverse background, as a bi-racial, tri-national woman, to inform both her filmmaking and her acting. Her acting work includes a slate of well-syndicated TV shows including How I Met Your Mother, iZombie, and Rizzoli & Isles. She holds a BA from Wesleyan and an MBA from UCLA Anderson. Legacy: The De-Colonized History of South Africa is her directorial debut, a feature-length documentary that she has directed, edited, and produced.
