Precious Mckenzie.

 


Task description:
My work is a poster all about one person, Precious McKenzie. A famous light weightlifter who wasn't accepted by the colour of his skin in South Africa, there was also people who were white lived there in South Africa but controlled most of the country. His story has a lot of sad things that happen to him because of his skin colour, he first joined the weightlifting gym and his coach was Kevin Stints, it was his first time joining the competition but then he broke the record. He had played for New Zealand because they treated him good without any judgements so he decided to weight lift and represent his culture, South Africa and New Zealand. He now is 80 years old, still does weight lift and now lives in New Zealand, Auckland.
