RIVER MONSTER: MY ELUSIVE AND CHARISMATIC FATHER
Māori were in charge before we signed Te Tiriti, there can be no historical doubt about this. It was powerful northern and then Waikato and Taranaki iwi that drove the push for trade in new technologies and the expansion into other rohe to dominate rival iwi and their resources.
The trade in slaves and the practice of cannibalism escalated with the purchase of each new musket. As did the subjugation of women, born high or low.
And like all Māori cultural practices, it was actually deeply organised. Some of the musket handles were beautifully carved. Cannibalism is a dark, taboo practice, but then what do you call the "decluttering" of the concentration camps? Progress? Civilisation? What do you call the cool physics of Hiroshima?
