On May 1st, 1979, a group of young Maori and Pasifika activists, He Taua, confronted a gathering of University of Auckland engineering students as they rehearsed their 'mock' haka for their capping parade. The fracas that followed prompted the nation to confront systemic racism and instigate change for a better and more equal partnership between Pakeha and Maori.
