John Robinson: Jim Crow racism in New Zealand

Here I consider the introduction of racism into New Zealand, the similarities with The Jim Crow laws, which were state and local laws introduced in the Southern United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that enforced racial segregation, and the influences that brought that era to an end – suggesting probable features of the New Zealand effort to return to equality, above all, the continuation of racism and the consistent effort required to assert equality.

This is the first of a set of three articles.  The second will describe the extent of the forces (which I have labelled the “Treaty Industry”) and the divisive world view that has been created, which must be overcome.  The third will suggest some ways in which the current government can help us, members of the general public, to overcome the belief in indigenous supremacy, and establish an egalitarian world view. 

Mike Butler: Who really broke the treaty?

It wasn’t the Crown that repeatedly broke the Treaty of Waitangi, and $4.3-billion has been paid to “settle” grievances that had been fabricated, according to commentator Dr John Robinson.

Career scientist Robinson, who has authored a series of works on racism in New Zealand, puts a blowtorch on New Zealand’s treaty industry in his new book titled Who Really Broke the Treaty?

He has seen the inside of that industry, worked for it, and knows exactly how it functions.

You would be surprised at the scale of a massive scam that has been going on for nearly 50 years – in broad daylight, and funded by you.
