14 sett 1953 anni - Landlord discrimination in Auckland

Descrizione:

An Auckland Star article of 21 September 1953 gave an example of two Maori men applying for a room in a boarding-house. One was offered a room, but his friend was told he could not be accommodated. The two men were brothers, but the successful one had a light complexion. This was not an isolated case
