1981 was when the springbok tour was
There were a number of organisations opposed to the 1981 Springbok tour including: HART (Halt All Racist Tours), CARE (Citizens Association for Racial Equality), COST ( Citizens Opposed to the Springbok Tour) and others. Key figures included John Minto, Trevor Richards and Tom Newnham.
The 1981 Springbok rugby tour of New Zealand was announced by Ces Blazey on July 1, 1981. This tour was highly controversial and sparked significant protests due to the political climate surrounding apartheid in South Africa at the time. The tour ultimately led to widespread demonstrations across New Zealand.

They didnt take no action
The 1981 Anti-Springbok Tour protesters hoped to get the attention of the public, by making large scale protests involving almost all of the locals. They hoped to educate the public, of the situation over in Southern Africa, and how the Aparteid were conducting racial and capitalist actions against innocent civilians.
During the Springbok Tour of 1981 in New Zealand, protests against the South African rugby team due to apartheid policies led to significant unrest. Approximately 1,500 people were injured in the protests, with many requiring medical attention due to clashes with police. The tour remains a pivotal moment in New Zealand's history regarding social justice and anti-apartheid activism.
New Zealand had signed The Gleneagles Agreement with other countries around the world. It stated that any country that signed the agreement would not participate in any sporting activities with South Africa until the apartheid was abolished. The government allowed the Springbok to come and play stating "no politics in sports" but many New Zealander's disagreed and organised protests to show their disapproval. My opinion on what happenede during the Springbok Tour is that the protestors had are reslly good reason for what they were doing.
retard springbok is sacy
No, the springbok is not a carnivore. It is a herbivorous antelope that primarily feeds on grasses, leaves, and shrubs.
South Africa first used the Springbok emblem on the 1906/07 Tour to the British isles and France. The y were first referred to as "De Springbokken" (The Springboks). see photograph at this link: http://www.rugbyrelics.com/images/aaaaa/or/20-1906-print.jpg
