Talk:MultiCultural Aotearoa

Question
Hi, this looks like an interesting article. Can someone explain a bit more about the "racist attacks" which supposedly caused the formation of the MCA? When/where/who? Also, is the MCA still active? -- FP 07:55, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)


 * See New Zealand National Front, where incidents of racial attacks are discussed. While researching this article I did not see any indication of ongoing activity by the MCA. It may have been a one-time coalition that joined together for a parade. BTW, thanks for your cleanup of the article. I'd been meaning to do that myself. Cheers, -Willmcw 08:08, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)


 * If it's relevant, I was beaten walking home from work carrying my shopping a few weeks before this protest, but I doubt that this is one of the racial attacks mentioned, as I'm European and the racists that attacked me (and my sister a year prior) were Maori. Neither of us attended the protest. Enzedbrit 22:51, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Not sure who the heck posted this article, but... The founding meeting itself, was just a general meeting of concerned citizens, which saw a number of heartfelt debates, including re. the issue of confrontation, with majority deciding that it was unethical, inappropriate and counterproductive. Naturally, there was a jewish presence at the meeting given the nature of the events that have given rise to it - that does not mean they were all zionists, and if they were - the point is?

Furthermore, half the people described were not present at the march, given some of the sentiments that came out at the meeting re. goals + means

so please make sure you verify your info
