The film‚ Once Were Warriors foregrounds the issue that Maori are a culture that has lost its way .The invited reading is that the Maori community deals with domestic violence‚ poverty‚ gangs and alcoholism.

By exploiting the representation that Maori men are brutal alcoholics and dangerous‚ viewers are positioned to agree with the expressions of the film. This representation is evident

I really enjoyed this book. It allowed me a glimpse of experiences that I will never be able to relate to. I was able to feel compassion for Melba and really care about the difficulties she faced in life. She desired equality and she volunteered to be one of the very first black students to be integrated

When the U.S. Supreme Court declared that school segregation was unconstitutional‚ Beals was a schoolgirl in Little Rock. She knew that the good school that would prepare her best for college was Central High in Little Rock‚ and she wanted to be in the first group of black teenagers to integrate the school
