Wellington, New Zealand It has been 50 years since the “dawn raid” in New Zealand, and the 82-year-old father of the Minister of the People of the Pacific, Opito William Theo, still cannot talk about it.
“An authority who should take care of you and an authority who serves you makes you feel helpless in your own home. How do you talk about this kind of thing?” Theo said.
The dawn raid occurred in the 1970s and involved people from the Pacific Islands who immigrated to New Zealand for work in the years after World War II.
One morning in the winter of 1974, the police brought the dog to the front door of Sio’s father’s house in Otara, Auckland. They require everyone in the house to retrieve their passports to show that they are legally entitled to stay in New Zealand. Dogs were barking, people were screaming, and the police chased Sio’s cousin from the garage. They were taken to prison, took their belongings, and then deported to Samoa.
