Waka Huia 2025 - Ep 2 - Ngāti Oneone

Kotahi rau tau ki muri, I riro atu ngā whenua o Ngati-Oneone ki te pākehā hei whakatūria i te wāpu, e kīia nei ko ‘Gisborne Port.’ I roto i ngā tahi rau tau kua tūkino rawa tia o rātou pā, ā, kei te tāheke haere te mana o te moana, me te mana o te whenua. Ahakoa tēnā, kei konei tonu ngā uri o Rawiri Te Eketu o Te Rangi e tohe ana kia hoki whenua mai. 100 years ago, land was stolen from the tribe of Ngati-Oneone in the East Coast of New Zealand. The land was taken from them to build a port, now known as, ‘Gisborne Port.’ After years of debating to give the land back and not being heard, the decedents of Rawiri Te Eketu o te Rangi have decided to march and take occupation over the land that is rightfully theirs. _______________________________________ Ngāti Oneone Ringatohu: Tioreore Ngatai-Melbourne
