It's really touching. While the wound is deep and passing from generation to generation, and it's vivid how the memories are still fresh in their life. The beauty of this march is non-violent action, and this will show that who really they are. The biggest question I have is, how do we fix this issue? Is it right to ignore it while many are going through all sort of difficulties in everyday of the majority Maori's life? If we have nothing to contribute for the solution, at least let's not through a negative comments about their daily life and ongoing struggle. My dear Maoris, my heart is with you and I will pray for the day to come to restore your mana & and retrieve your land. May the living God bless you.

Awesome, so inspiring, posting to facebook so others can feel the spirit of it.
I was early teens when this march happened and joined them when they came through the King Country.
I was watching Native Affairs on Maori TV the other night and Hone and Pita were talking about a Hikoi happening soon, from Cape Reinga to Wellington, to bring attention to to what is happening regarding SOEs and other issues of concern, to not only the Maori people but to all NZers. Was looking for more info about it on the net but couldn't find anything but I found this. Know there will be some info coming up about this future hikoi soon and I'm looking forward to supporting it.
Very supportive of our Rereahu whanau and their current occupation of their whenua at Bennydale. Kia ora and kia kaha to you all, I know yous will never give up on your whenua and one day it will return to you.

Ka Pai! Very good! I enjoyed watching this movie. The information reminds us of why we take the stands against the British Empire in extending its boudaried areas in Land claims, and we are part of their claim - as their slaves. Its through Crown court legislation that we have LOST our RIGHTS to speak in their COURT PROCEEDINGS asserted. Its these proceedings that have led to the MASS LOSS of our whenua - ;and. I also enjoyed the sharing demonstrated, and each one sharing info!!
