At Hui ā Motu, in Jan, Kiingi Tūheitia said these great words:
“The best protest we can do right now is be Maaori. Be who we are, live our values, speak our reo, care for our mokopuna, our awa, our maunga, just be Maaori. Maaori all day, every day. We are here, we are strong.”

40 per cent of NZ's prison population is on remand, up from 10 per cent in 2000, raising major justice and rehab concerns. Like much else Māori are disproportionately affected - Māori men are on remand at 9 times the rate of non-Māori nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/e…
