Reading Sad Joke on a Marae by Apirana Taylor really got me thinking about how Maori men are portrayed as being alcoholics who spend all their time and money at the pub and are violent people who spend time in jail. This is shown in the text by saying “Ngatai DB is my tribe. The pub is my marae. My fist is my taiaha. Jail is my home”. I believe that this is a terrible stereotype for the natives of our country to have and also believe that it is completely wrong. This stereotype of violence and alcoholism

Abortion is truly a cruel action in this world that we as of right now allow. I know this is an arguable statement‚ but I can say I completely disagree with the predicament.
