History with Dr Grant Morris

From Afternoons, 3:20 pm on 21 November 2024

Dr Grant from Victoria University looks at the history of mass protests in New Zealand and how they stack up against Tuesday's hikoi to Wellington. 

An estimated 10,000 plus crowd of Maori demonstrators crowd the grounds of parliament after a Hikoi (walk of hope) that has taken them from the top to the bottom of New Zealand's North Island in protest to the proposed seabed and foreshore legislation, 05 May 2004.
