Māori Haka and Protests Surge Against Controversial New Zealand Bill

Māori lawmakers in New Zealand, led by Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, performed a haka in parliament to protest the Treaty Principles Bill, which critics argue infringes on indigenous rights. The protest, which included tearing up the bill, was a powerful act of resistance against the proposed legislation that seeks to reinterpret the Treaty of Waitangi. The bill has sparked widespread protests across the country, although it is not expected to pass. Maipi-Clarke, the youngest MP, was suspended for her actions, which have inspired many globally.
