Racial Barriers Rising All Over The World, Says Doctor
“New Zealand should have said ‘lf you won’t take Maoris, then we won’t send an All Black team to South Africa’,” said Dr Raymond Dudley in, an address at Rotorua recently. Speaking in forcible terms about racial discrimination, he said that this country had had its chance to prove its superiority. “But we allowed something to prevent it,” he added. In .spite of the work of the Churches, to break down racial barriers, a wave of prejudice was rising throughout the world, predicted Dr Dudley. “I was told in South Africa that a coloured medical student was not allowed to enter the dissecting room when studies were conducted on the body of a white person. It did not matter if the cadaver was of the lowliest persons; if it was white, then a coloured student could not touch it.”
