1981 Spirngbok Tour

This week in literacy we have been learning about the 1981 springbok tour 

Questions :

Where was it? Why was it important to some? Should sport and politics be mixed? What is your opinion about why they were protesting?



My Answers And opinion:

The whole springbok tour 1981 was in New Zealand and the flour bomb test was at Eden park in Auckland. I think the reason to some people it was so important was because half of the country wanted the springbok tour to go ahead and the other half didn't so the government chose for it to go ahead. I don't think politics and sport should be mixed because when the 1981 springbok tour happen it got too chaotic and I wouldn't want more political things to get mixed with sport, or use sport as an advantage to show there protest. 

I agree with what they were protesting about because I hate racism and i hate people that are racist to other countries and people just because they look different to them.
