Maori demo spirit


You do know about the Maori culture, right? ;-)

Just a pic from a story I posted back home, found at the New Zealand Indy media.
http://www.indymedia.org.nz/

On October 15 2007, New Zealand anti-terror police arrested 17 activists in the town of Aotearoa, an action that has caused widespread support demonstrations. Many demonstrate to protest the arrest of Tame Iti, a very popular Maori activist, among them the man on the picture.

The police anti-terror raid already has a wiki here.

3. Splendid! Thanks
Great clips, especially the first. It's strong body language, no?

5. I guess the gingerbread haka is a little silly,
just a little. But it's the All Blacks haka anyway~
