While we still remember Guy Fawkes on this day, a more important 5 November anniversary for Aotearoa is the invasion of Parihaka. #NZHistory https://nzhistory.govt.nz/occupation-pacifist-settlement-at-parihaka
Invasion of pacifist settlement at Parihaka

About 1600 troops invaded the western Taranaki settlement of Parihaka, which had come to symbolise peaceful resistance to the confiscation of Māori land.

Among the songs about that day are this recent one by Don McGlashan - John Bryce. Bryce was the Native Minister and led the invading troops. #NZHistory #RememberParihaka https://youtu.be/6OoDq7JNgF0
