The Insidious Practice of Inter-Ethnic Racism in New Zealand
A recent report, 'Inter-Ethnic Racisms in Aotearoa: A Study of South Asian Communities in New Zealand,' by Cayathri Divakalala and Rachel Simon-Kumar from the University of Auckland, sheds light on a critical issue.
The study reveals a complex and disturbing reality: the prevalence of racism, colourism, and ethnic prejudice within the South Asian diaspora itself.
The narrative of racism in New Zealand has rightly centred on the systemic oppression faced by Māori and Pasifika, and the challenges encountered by ethnic minorities from the dominant culture.
This research demands immediate attention, as it highlights the need to look inward at the prejudices harboured and perpetuated by migrant and ethnic communities.
Author's summary: Racism exists within ethnic communities in New Zealand.
