The Springbok Tour Protests

 So back in the day NZ and South Africa liked playing rugby but then racisicim happend and thats how apartheid which another name for it is apartness and when that happend SA came to NZ again and then tried to watch some rugby at the stadiums but the police came to stop them from coming in so the South Africans wore helmets to protect themselves from the special police batons and not long after the maori all blacks where called honorary whites which upset them because of how all blacks that wern't maori got to go to SA to verse them in rugby because apparently maori were supposed to repesent NZ for rugby overseas but the rugby union said nah will send the non maori and then after that the hamaltion rugby game was cancelled due to hundrads of anti protesters occupiing the field i think due to all this protesting i think it all went well now that all people different can be also respected and i think that this protest helped for nelson mandella to become the new president of SA which means he got out of jail after all he did and was the first black president of SA
