Planarwalk | The 1981 Springbok Tour: How Sports Got Political @Planarwalk | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 23 hours ago.
The 1981 Springbok tour was the most divisive event in NZ history, with polliong showing that 54% of Kiwis were against it, prime minister Robert Muldoon saying that Politics and Sports should not be mixed, and anti-tour protesters claiming that allowing a tour is condoning South African Apartheid. This look at the event also makes comparisons to how we view protests and politics in the modern day.
