Black lives matter

Black Lives Matter

Kia ora everyone I am here to do a persuasive writing on black lives matter. For example, we shouldn't judge people for what they look like on the outside.

We should never mock people for what they look and seem like because of their skin colour. Don’t judge people the way they look because if you end up in their shoes, what do you think is gonna happen to you. Feeling the way they feel. Just look at them as another brother and sister. We are all human.

Next thing. I don't think white people had to fear their lives because of their skin. You have police officers that are white that arrest their own race with non violence, but then you have them arresting a black person with their knee on their neck. They knew what they were doing, but they still didn’t bother to stop.

In real life I have encountered a racial activity. One day I had a rugby match. I was heading down to Waitemata with my best friend that I grew up with since 4 years old. We were going past Ellerslie when a black American tourist was abused to go back to his own country. Judged by a white New Zealander.



If there was one thing I would change, I would change the way people judged each other R.I.P George Floyd, Fly high. 

So I did the black lives matter movement because I think people need to hear the message. Black Lives matter, and don't forget that. Ka Ki Te Ano.
