RISE UP : The Story of the Dawn Raids and the Polynesian Panthers

LI : To evaluate (form an opinion) the text and respond to the provocation

For reading, Group 2 read a text called RISE UP: The Story of the Dawn Raids and the Polynesian Panthers. We were challenged to create a DLO that explores and discusses both perspectives of this historical event in our groups. We used our smart searching skills to learn and find stuff about the dawn raids, which lead us to talk about the danw raids. For our own opinion , we said that we think the dawn raids was a very discriminal and shameful event that occured in New Zealand. Something I found interesting about this text was that alot of policies had targeted pacific people just because they don’t belong in this country.
