The press

Women who have done nothing other than to visibly exist as Maori online increasing face stalking harassment, and threats of rape and death. Michell Duff and Kirsty Johnston report. Far-right threats to Maori women.

When Hiria her moko is still visible but she hopes the man who threatened to kill her wouldn't recognize her from that alone. When game developers te Rangi and her friend Morgana attended the NZ game developers association annual conferences at te papa to speak on a panel last week. 600 others attended networked over the last 2 days. This woman barely left their room. " it means I second guess myself at everything. you do things like think, have I posted any pieces of the kids in school uniforms" Who have done nothing other than to visually exist as Maori online? " I've been doing this job for 20 years, and the treats were few and far between, but it's really escalated and in the last year it's been happening more frequently" " Not just the amount of it, but the tone has changed. I can tell it's older people. I don't know if it's related tome being more visible than before or if it's gained momentum exponentially." Stuff spoke to 5 others who did not want to speak publicly because of fear of their family's after receiving death and rape notes. Maori women kids teens and adults cloured or not have been treated with their lives and traumatizing experiences but authorities need to act. Do we need to die to get this attention? discussions on platforms such as Facebook and YouTube have shown an increase in terms like separation. there have been many racial marks on online platforms on blacks and people such as Maori. and there have been kids and teens threatened. 


The article was published by staff on Aug 13th  it is an in-depth article about tension racism and tells other people and the teacher read it out today. This behaviour is appealing and this is not who we are and this is putting a bad reputation on NZ
