Hey blogger's,
We learned about the dawn raids. What are the dawn raids you might be thinking? Well basically 50 years ago in new zealand polynesian people got treated horribly just for being another Skin colour, I know sad right. Anyways, The Police would raid there houses and look for overstayers the police would make it sound like they had the most overstayers when really it was country's like England, South America and Canada so this was just a racist move. At school we whached a video about it. Here is a link!- Video!
There was also a group called the polynesian panthers that where peaceful protesters trying to get people to treat them how they should be treated. Above are some pictures of them protesting.
Thank you so much for reading my blog! And if you were bown back in the day would you join the polynesian panthers?
