Evaluating the "Dawn Raids & Polynesian Panthers | Reading

L.I To read the information in the text, think about what you read and form an opinion. 

In this DLO, The Kakapo's have been Evaluating the Situation that happened in the Mid 1970's, known as the "Dawn Raids" that had happened in Aotearoa. The Dawn raids was a action that took Polyneasians by suprise. The New Zealand(Auckland) Immigration had took the decision of Police officers to Deport Polyneasian's from NZ back to their country. This also included the terms of "Over-stayers". This word was described as Polyneasians. As this went on, These young University Students, stepped up, and protested against this tragedy, known as the "Polyneasian Panthers". The reason that the Polynesian Panthers were included, was to educate others and to get polynesian's to be traeted equally. 

 As a Polynesian person my-self, In my opinion, I don't think that Dawn raiding shouldn't have been a thing, because their are other ways to solve this peacfully, either then tearing families without even saying a goodbye.
