Standing up for our rights

Today in Hurumanu we are writing down words and then writing their meaning. Learning Outcome: Demonstrate how social messages and stereotypes can affect feelings of self-worth.

Discrimination: The act of treating some people unfairly because of prejudice.
Prejudice: An opinion formed without knowing all the facts.
Stereotypes: A standardised and oversimplified and inaccurate conception held by many people.
Protest: An objection of complaint. To express objection to or disagreement with, in a planned, organized way.
Social messaging: Passing of a message/idea from Person to Person in a community

The Dawn Raids:

-What happened?
Police went house to house checking to see if they actually belong in New Zealand.

-How did stereotyping and social messaging play a role in this incident?
It's cause people thought that black people were bad and overstayers so they blamed them for the reason they didn't have jobs. The black people would get raided in the middle of the night and forced them to show their passports or reasons why they should stay or should be there and if they didn't have a reason they would be diported this lead to the Polynesian Panthers to react on the situation and that made New Zealand a better place. This was because they told the govourment that it was terrible that they were doing what they were doing.
