There are good reasons to be for it because if they hadn't come south
africa shouldn't have realised how wrong they were and they would have
probably still be racist towards that own people and kind. Also NZ was a
big part in stopping them.

My poem on the hawke's bay earthquake (1931)
When the earthquake happened
I had been up for a few hours
I could see the building around me falling down
Like the game I used to play (dominos)
The sound was so loud it was deafening
My mum was telling me to
GET under a door frame
I remembered what on of my
Teachers had told us to do if there is an
Earthquake
I ran as fast as I could without getting hit
By the things flying off the kitchen shelves
Mums big brown bowls where all over the ground
I was as scared as a fish that had been brought out of water
The earthquake seemed as if it had gone on forever.
It was too dangerous for anyone to move so when the shaking stopped
The sound of sirens filled the air
