MĀORI AND POLYNESIAN COMMUNITIES MEET TO REFLECT ON HURTFUL HISTORY
A meeting is to be held at the Orākei marae in Tamaki Makaurau where Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei and Pacific leaders and communities will meet to commemorate the anniversary and reflect on the hurt caused in that time.
“We want to build on it, and help other communities that are settling into New Zealand Aotearoa so they don’t suffer the same indignities that we did at the time of the dawn raids.”
“I also think that Pacific people should learn about the struggles of Māori and what better place to do it than at the Ngāti Whātua marae.
“I think that the Māori history still needs to be worked through our education system. Young people need to know what happened after the Treaty of Waitangi.”......
