Give Nothing To Racism

[kezkezooie]

I adore Taika Waititi and this is yet another example of why I do.
This is a brilliant way of getting the message across.
Let's all starve racism out of existence. Give it nothing. Absolutely nothing.

[diulikadikaday]

The problem with me is that I'm not racist at all. I don't give anything to racism.

You can tell because I'm always starting my sentences with "I'm not racist, but..."

If only we could get ads like this in the USA. I don’t know how many times I’ve shared this over the last couple years but it’s a lot. Thank you

Using this in class. I know many teachers who do. The children get a great buzz and feel very clever when they 'get' how the irony works, and that buzz is the best teacher.

Is there a "Make Racism Great Again" cap that you can buy?

[yellowriverbyipdaily]

What a brilliant way to illustrate the subtle, yet very ugly way racism thrives

[shez]

This is absolutely wonderful, & thanks team Gruen on the ABC for alerting me to its existence.

The best thing I ever did was to stop laughing at shit jokes. Made an effort to not be around people that make shit jokes. I sat on my own at lunch time for a bit, then people joined me.

This is the kind of stuff that actually hurts racism.

Kiaora Taika, nga mihi nui kia koe i to korero e hoa. Thank you Taika for voicing your opinion about racisim. With your platform I'm so relieved that this could possibly happen. It's a conversation that people of Aotearoa, NZ need to have & what you said is what Maori & minorities been wanting to say & talk about about I assume for ages. So I hope this conversation will carry on moving forward.

He aha tena whakatauki:

Ma te rongo ka mohio,
Ma te mohio ka marama,
Ma te marama ka matou,
Ma te matau ka ora.

Through listening comes awareness,
Through awareness comes understanding,
Through understanding comes knowledge,
Through knowledge comes well being.
That basicly it so again. Kiaora,

Ano nga mihi nui kia koe Taika tau te rangimarie.

Arohanui
Mauriora

Dude, this is effing brilliant! I’ve sent it to so many people!

[damienjstepick]

Makes me think about the Native American story of the two wolves inside each of us... one is good and one is evil. Which one wins? The one we feed.

Perhaps the less we feed evil in the world, the less evil there will be.

Where do I make my donation? I wonder how much the White House is giving this year.

[warpedjaffas]

There's a line of 'I'm cured' Tees and more to promote this brilliance. This made me feel good and gave me optimism. Thanks.

[Waitakeredame]

A brilliant piece of satire by a very talented and funny man. Pai rawa to tuhituhi, pai rawa to mahi. He rangatira toa koe.

Way to go Taika! Show the entire country how naturally talented and artistically inclined Maori are and have always been, show them that because of our strong identity and because of our long historic connection to the land of Aotearoa we can do everything and anything in spite of racist colonialism. Thank you for showing us even if we live in a small Maori community like you did we can still make Hollywood blockbusters all the while representing our culture for the world to embrace and adore. The only people who won't embrace our culture when given the opportunity are the racists and just like this ad says "we should give nothing to racism.' A great alternative would be instead of donating to racism maybe donations would be better spent on a trip to the cinemas to check out Thor Ragnarok directed by Aotearoa's very own Taika Waititi #TangtaWhenua

[mirandam]

anyone else doing this for year 10 English?

[greenbeardpirate]

My history teacher played this twice in our class

[thirdeyeblind]

How the fuck he kept a straight face long enough to make this amazes me.

[Mia-midy]

Ugh, I want to share this with so many people, I almost want to make more accounts just so I can spread it more.
