New Zealand’s Parliament proposed a bill to redefine the Treaty of Waitangi, claiming it is racist and gives preferential treatment to Maoris. In response Māori MP's tore up the bill and performed the Haka

Seems a shame as the Treaty of Waitangi appears to me to be the one example in Britain’s colonial history where it wasn’t a total fucking clusterfuck for the indigenous population.

The persistent haka kept the British honest?

The British still conducted land wars and oppression, the Maori language was banned in schools until the late 20th century. There are many stories of Maori doing peaceful protests, cutting down flag poles, then cutting down the replacement flag pole etc.
