The Dark History of New Zealand’s Destability and Current Conflicts
A Complex and Painful History.. and Lessons for the Current Generation
The genocide of the Moriori people by mainland Māori is a tragic and undeniable part of the country's past. It's a painful and complex issue that has had lasting impacts on the Māori people and the nation as a whole.
The subsequent colonization by Europeans also led to significant injustices and suffering for the Māori population.Policies of land confiscation, forced resettlement, and cultural suppression caused immense harm.
It's important to acknowledge these historical atrocities and to understand the ongoing impact they have on Māori communities today. New Zealand has made efforts towards reconciliation and addressing the legacy of these past wrongs,but there's still much work to be done.
