Hello welcome back to my blog today I am going to talk about my protest and Parihaka work. We had to learn about what protest rules by rules I mean laws and stuff like that. There is a special law that takes care of the protest.
Here is my work.

Rights Act.

3. How many women signed the Women's Suffrage petition? The petition was more than five hundred
pages long and signed by over 25,000 women.
