These are some ways the British crown dishonored and committed group sin against the Maori and the Treaty. The government sent British troops to the King Country to take the land by force. The British confiscated all of the South Island and the King Country which was ⅕ of the North Island. The British didn’t have trials for prisoners which resulted in many unjust executions and detentions. The British failed to preserve enough land for Maori and they took the maori land for public works and private ownership.
New Zealanders can restore tika and pono by learning about the Treaty of Waitangi and encouraging others to do the same. We can also speak more Te Reo so the Maori language we can respect the Maori heritage.
