Bias Chapter 8 of the Whale Rider Story



I choose these parts because It shows Koro Apirana being bias to Kahu. Koro Apirana is getting grumpy. . This is chapter 8 of the whale rider story. We had to go through and find the sentences about Koro Apirana being bias to Kahu. And this is what I found. I have highlighted these ones because It shows Koro Apirana being bias to Kahu. He is being bias because he didn't want Kahu to be a girl and Koro Apirana is getting angry because she is not a boy.  And in his family the oldest child is always going to be the chief . Also in Koro Apirana's family all the leaders have been a boy and they have no girl leaders .  So that is why Koro Apirana doesnt like Kahu being a girl
 Bias is  Focusing on one side of the story.  It could be forms of racism, sexism or other cultural beliefs.  It can involve people forming stereotypes.

My Reflection :
  I enjoyed doing this activate because I have never done it before but we have talked a lot about bias so I did know what bias meant .  Next time I need to work on finding more bias parts because I only found 3 .
