Gee. Question. If i was born here and have no other place to go, then that makes me indigenous? "Indigenous people or things belong to the country in which they are found, rather than coming there or being brought there from another country" 😊
There was a good article by Chris Trotter last week on his Bowalley Road site.
"He puapua’ means ‘a break’, which usually refers to a break in the waves. Here, it refers to the breaking of the usual political and societal norms and approaches. We hope that the breaking of a wave will represent a breakthrough where Aotearoa’s constitution is rooted in te Tiriti o Waitangi and the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.”
If you haven't already, you'd better recognise your white identity and embrace it, because the people coming for political power recognise their racial identity as well as yours.
Until we recognise Queen Victoria's 1840 Royal Charter/Letters as our true Founding Document and first Constitution that made New Zealand into a British Colony on the 3 May 1841 under one flag and one law, irrespective of race, colour and creed, we will continue to be fleeced by a document that can no longer be translated. The Treaty of Waitangi had nothing to do with setting up New Zealand's political, legal or justice system, it only asked tangata Maori to give up their governments and in return, they would become British Subjects, "With, the same rights as the people of England". FACT!
