Newsroom's Racism

I want to expose the racist predetermination in the article "Our racist education system". However, let me start with a few quotes from this article which may possibly be mostly true:

  1. It was an assimilatory intention, a civilising intention, a colonising intention, and a Christianising intention…

  2. “Racism exists – we feel little and bad,” one student in an alternative education unit said during an interview for the study of 2000 children, including 150 face-to-face interviews.

  3. When students feel like they belong, they do better.

  4. ... rangatahi had described specific instances of bias and racism in mainstream education.

  5. ... if teachers were taught more on these topics when they were at school, they would come into the profession with a different perspective – one where they were less likely to hold racist or biased views, they said.

 

The introductory sentence of the article "Our racist education system" states:

"New Zealand has one of the least equal education systems in the world, and experts tell Laura Walters colonisation and racism are largely to blame."

 

However, Walters makes absolutely no mention of any actual evidence for the conclusion that colonisation and racism are largely to blame.

 

So-Called "Experts"

Walters does not tell us her definition of "expert", how it is that Walters herself came to know so much about the subject that she knows that they are "experts", or what topics exactly they are "experts" in! If she had told us that, her article would have been an intelligent and competent piece of journalism, instead of the racist rant that it actually is.

Leftists typically choose some Leftist academic or other and call them an "expert", which is short-hand for: "Gee, I sure love the way that this academic hates men and/or Whites and/or heterosexuals and/or non-disabled people and/or rich people!" See, for example, my article: "Andrew Little Lies Like a Girl."

Walters mentions two so-called "experts": Tracey Martin and Andrew Becroft. Tracey Martin was just a credit controller and houswife, before she became a politician. Andrew Becroft was just a judge -- i.e. someone whose training was in the Law. It is a pure and simple lie to claim that these two people are experts as to the relationship between colonisation, racism and education.

 

Comparing Maoris with Asians and Boys

Walters cites a report which "found Maori students falling significantly behind on every measure of educational outcome including secondary school retention rate, school leavers achieving NCEA Level 2, and rate of youth in education, employment or training.".

Compare that to Fergusson, D. M. and L.J. Horwood (1997): "Gender Differences in Educational Achievement in a New Zealand Birth Cohort." (New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, Vol. 32 No. 1, 1997), which finds that "throughout the school career of this cohort males achieved less well than females." Neither those authors nor Walters blame colonisation and racism for the fact that boys do less well than girls, although it is true that women and Feminism have indeed "colonised" the media, the education system (and New Zealand as a whole).

Fergusson, D. M., M. Lloyd and L.J. Horwood (1991): "Teacher Evaluations of the Performance of Boys and Girls." (New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, Vol. 26, No. 2, 1991) state, in relation to eight to eleven-year-old children, "... in the areas of reading and written expression teachers showed consistent tendencies to evaluate the performance of girls more favourably than the boys even after adjustment for gender differences in objective test scores were (sic) made." So, if there is teacher sexism against boys, maybe there is teacher racism against Maoris as well -- but you will never catch any New Zealand journalist making that comparison! Journalists favour an alliance between Feminists and minorities and they hate men.

Walters states that Maori students who attend Maori immersion schools do much better at reading, and achieve much higher in NCEA and at university or in employment than those who attend English-medium schools. There is no evidence in the article that this is because of systemic racism in the education system or the racism of individual staff. That is certainly one possible explanation, but another possible factor is that Maoris might just prefer to be taught by Maoris and to be surrounded by Maori classmates!

I think it is obvious that Asian students do very well in the education system, so why aren't they affected by racism to the same extent, if this racism actually exists?

 

Assimilation

Everyone is of mixed ancestry. Even if their family tree does not show this mixture, their DNA will. For example, the article Maori origins, Y-chromosome haplotypes and implications for human history in the Pacific states: "An assessment of 28 pertinent binary genetic markers on the non-recombining portion of the Y chromosome (NRY) in New Zealand Maori and other relevant populations has revealed a diverse genetic paternal heritage of extant Maori." Therefore assimilation has been occurring for thousands of years already -- although most of it was probably forced assimilation, caused by conquest. Therefore assimilation is a possibly a good thing, rather than a bad thing. If you are part of the same (mixed) culture and (mixed) ethnicity as someone else, you have less reason to be hostile to them, since cultures and ethnicities are usually hostile to each other. The downside of assimilation is that the transition period always involves one group being disadvantaged, compared with the dominant group.

It may be too late to expect Maoris to accept assimilation, although this would be in their best interests and in the best interests of the country as a whole. The more Maoris assert their separateness, the more conflict will inevitably arise.

 

Conclusion

New Zealand women are, in general, viciously anti-male and the female-dominated media and education system fiercely refuse to discuss the issue of anti-boy sexism in the education system. If we want to discuss the issue of Maori performance in the education system, we should do that in the context of a discussion of the performance of Asian students and the performance of boys, rather than just predetermining that everything is the fault of Whites and that women can do no wrong!
