What is Racism?

Racism is usually described as actions or beliefs that impose members of a race that share the same physical traits or qualities are either more superior or inferior than others. Racism is usually built on stereotypes of certain cultures, the cultures usually being defined as "races", hence the term "racism." The people who perform these actions are called "racists". Racism is generally discouraged in schools and countries worldwide. It is now seen as a major issue, and can affect the lives of people in our community.

Our Mission Statement

"If all our cultures are pieces of a puzzle, it is our job to put this picture together."

Line of Inquiry

Our Line of Inquiry - An Inquiry into: how people with different strengths can solve an issue if they work together, is all about how people with different jobs can come together and solve a problem easily.


For example, Fight Dem Back, another New Zealand organisation preventing racism, has many different people in their organisation. They recruited a lawyer, who also doubled as a professional blogger, a multimedia producer and radio journalist, an author and a well-known community activist. With all these different people working on the same thing, they could quickly pull their organisation together.

The World Wildlife Fund works with fishermen, rangers and other environment specialists. Their main team consists of people who have event management skills, financial reporting skills, and administrative reporting skills. They even have people who go out to educate schools on how humans have intervened with the environment. If their staff didn't have any of these attributes, the World Wildlife Fund wouldn't be as well-known as it is now.

The same applies for Unicef. The chairman of Unicef has extensive business and accounting experience, while their deputy is associated with many charitable trusts. On their board they have a lawyer, a journalist and a cultural communications specialist. It takes different people with a variety of jobs to achieve success.
