Maraia - My Point of view and others from the Dawn Raids

 My Point of view and others from the Dawn Raids 

Today in class we found out that there was an apology for the Dawn Raids, and so Today we did an activity about the Point of Views, from other people's perspectives in the dawn raids.  I had to choose three people/groups out of 15 I think. I choose the Polynesian Panthers, Jacinda Ardern and Polynesians working for the NZ Government. The point I agreed with most was Jacinda Ardern. 

Check out my Activity!

Maraia, Vili, Alfonsus - Dawn Raids Activity

Today in class we learnt about the Dawn raids because it was in New Zealand and apart of our history and we found out that three days ago on August 1st  there was an apology for the Dawn Raids and Jacinda Ardern our Prime minister did a speech and there were different types of performances but with cultures.

The Dawn raids started because the Labour Government faced an economic turn down and New Zealand people noticed that they weren't getting a lot of money so they said that they need to fire people because they weren't getting money. But when the people noticed they didn't have enough to pay their bills so they got angry and said that the Polynesian's were taking and stealing their jobs, and if you were brown you would randomly get stopped in church or even in the streets.
