Answer :

Final answer:

In the context of apartheid-era South Africa, the 1936 Group Areas Act enforced racial segregation, limiting economic opportunities and urban amenities for black individuals. African men were required to carry dompas as a means of control and monitoring under the settlement policy.


Explanation:

The implication of the statement 'access to both economic opportunities and urban amenities was restricted' in the context of the 1936 Group Areas Act reflects the systematic discrimination and segregation enforced by apartheid policies in South Africa. This act allocated specific urban areas to different racial groups, limiting where black individuals could live and work, thereby restricting their access to economic opportunities and urban amenities.

Every African man had to carry a dompas in an urban area during the 1930s as part of the settlement policy to control and monitor the movements of black individuals. The dompas served as a form of identification enforced by apartheid laws, regulating where African men could reside and work within urban areas.
