The Holocaust Centre of New Zealand has released a statement following reports of a growing white supremacist movement on the University of Auckland campus:
“The Holocaust Centre of New Zealand urges Auckland University management to take decisive action now over the physical and psychological intimidation of students by a small group of neo-Nazis through the University’s campus.
“This type of action, hate speech and physical intimidation, has no place in New Zealand society.
“As our Prime Minister has committed herself to make New Zealand safer, in the wake of the Christchurch attack, we call on the University to do the same.”
“The cancer of neo-Nazism needs to be excised by Auckland University management.”
“We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented”. – Elie Wiesel
