Hello welcome back to my blog.
There was a lot of protests that have happened in new Zealand and around the world but here in new Zealand a protest for something that was horrific was the dawn raids so we got some questions we had to answer here is my work.
Discrimination:the act of treating someone unfairly off of how you see them
Prejudice:an opinion formed without knowing all the facts
Stereotype:how you think someone acts based off what they like or look like
Protest:disagreeing with a popular opinion/to express objections in a planned or organised way
Social messaging:passing of a message or idea from person to person or community
What happened.
At a time when there wasn't enough people to fill jobs the new Zealand government invited people from Polynesian islands and other places to work here with a permit that would say when they had to leave,after a while the permits were extended but then the jobs become scarce and lots of people became jobless
people blamed it on the people of colour mostly on the Polynesians and would report them to the police and they would do a dawn raid. In a dawn raid they would come at 3 am come into your house and arrest every one even the children and hold you in prison until you could prove you have a right to be here you were not aloud to take anything from your house except the clothes on your back.
How did Stereotyping and social messaging play a role in this incident.
Social messaging was in this incident because the government said that people were taking jobs and blamed it on people of colour mostly Polynesians and this spread around the community causing people who say live next to some who was of colour to report them and take there job.
How has this protest impacted new Zealand
There are now people from all over the world here and there are new rules for the police and people. The government has now apologised for what they did.
Thank you for reading my blog I hope you have a nice day bye.
