  1. This is a music video I did for an independent musician/producer friend in #Birmingham #UK for a local crew called #EmpressRoots that he wrote and produced this track for.

    This video project began over 2 years ago and as the world continued to spiral towards oblivion the more manic my editing became. Having finished this video some time ago now, it's heartbreaking to see just how much more dire all our futures have become.

    Whakamānawa to the #NZPol #ToitūTeTiriti #Hikoi footage in some of the cuts along with all those taking part in the global rise against #fascism, #genocide #oligarchy

  4. You know the #hikoi reached deep into every corner of our country...conversations about it with ordinary NZers everywhere - at the supermarket, in taxis, the hairdressers, in cafes, in pubs.

    I don't see this "silent majority" for Seymour's Bill and worldview: just his supporters - perpetually aggrieved predominantly older white people who think their privilege and entitlement is somehow being taken away. #NZPol

    Once again the RNZ headline is trying to distract from what this is really about.

    TJ Perenara is not showing support for the #Hīkoi which no doubt he does support but he is in fact showing support for #TeTiritioWaitangi and its place in Aotearoa for all time.

    Although many traveled from afar to join #Hīkoi the conservative estimate of 84,000 participants equates to approximately 15.5% of #NewZealand 's third largest city #Wellington 's population.

  14. Über 40.000 Menschen haben in einem 9-tägigem #Hīkoi auf die Hauptstadt Wellington in #Neuseeland ihren #Protest zum Ausdruck gebracht. Im Maori-Treaty wurden 1840 zwischen 500 #Maori Chiefs und der britischen Krone grundsätzliche Rechte der Maori definiert. Eine aktuelle Gesetzesinitiative stellt diese Rechte nun in Frage.

  15. Tens of thousands rally at #NewZealand Parliament against bill to alter #IndigenousRights

    An estimated 42,000 people gathered to oppose legislation that would reinterpret a 184-year-old treaty signed between the British and Indigenous #Maori.

    Nov. 19, 2024

    WELLINGTON, New Zealand — "Tens of thousands of New Zealanders rallied in front of Parliament on Tuesday in one of the country’s largest ever #protests to oppose a bill, which opponents say seeks to dilute the rights of Maori and threatens to set race relations back decades.

    "Massive crowds estimated by the police at 42,000 gathered at Parliament, where the #TreatyPrinciplesBill was introduced earlier this month by legislators who want to reinterpret a 184-year-old treaty signed between the British and #IndigenousMaori.

    "While the bill lacks enough support to pass, critics see in it a desire to reverse decades of policies that aimed to empower Maori, who make up around 20% of the 5.3 million population but have higher levels of deprivation and incarceration and worse health outcomes than the broader population.

    “'I’m here for my grandchildren, my children and for their children,' said #HoanaHadfield from Wellington, who was marching in a protest for the first time.

    "'I think it’s important that we keep our #kaupapa, which is our values as Maori and our culture, and it’s a real big thing for us to have #CulturalIdentity.'

    "Some people in the crowd were dressed in traditional attire with feathered headgear and cloaks and carried traditional Maori weapons, while others wore T-shirts emblazoned with #ToituTeTiriti (#HonorTheTreaty). Hundreds carried the Maori national flag.

    "The protest was preceded by a nine-day march, or #hikoi, that began in the country’s far north, with thousands joining rallies in towns and cities as marchers traveled south on foot and in cars to Wellington.

    "Unity and solidarity was spoken about a lot in the rally. #HelmutModlik, a leader in the Ngati Toa tribe, told the crowd that it was too late to divide the country.

    “'To those who will divide us, whanau, it is too late. We are already one people,' Modlik said to cheers from those gathered on the lawns of Parliament.
    Booming Indigenous Maori '#haka' chants rang out across New Zealand's capital on November 19, as thousands rallied against a conservative proposal accused of stoking racial divisions."

  19. @jeremy_pm Does anyone know if was the biggest ever demonstration in Wellington. It seems it me

  20. Imagine if the distasteful debate here in Australia around The Voice to Parliament had instead activated Australians of all colours like the #hīkoi did today in Wellington. Imagine if the behaviour of those involved had been as good? No name-calling. No threats. Just people of goodwill coming together in solidarity to show the racists what they were up against.

    This country has no clue. In this case NZ puts us to shame.

  21. "More than 42,000 people have gathered as the Hīkoi mō te Tiriti overflows from Parliament's grounds and onto nearby Wellington streets."

    rnz.co.nz/news/te-manu-korihi/

    That's the numbers the cops have given RNZ. Based on the numbers journalists reported they were given by the cops, about protests I attended, I suspect the full number of Hīkoi participants today is probably many times that.
