The 1975 Māori land march nears its destination. The march, led by Dame Whina Cooper (Te Rarawa) and Te Rōpū o te Matakite o Aotearoa, which began at Te Hāpua, the northernmost settlement in New Zealand, and ended at Parliament, was a protest against continuing losses of Māori land. The marchers arrived at Parliament three days after the law setting up the Waitangi Tribunal was passed.
