Anti-tour protest organiser It is June 1981. You are a member of a movement opposed to the Springbok tour. There are branches of your movement throughout the country. You have been asked to write a pamphlet to send to all branches of your movement. This paper needs to outline why you believe the Springbok tour should not proceed, and if it does go ahead, why it must be disrupted using the strongest means possible. There has been criticism of the anti-tour movement for its stand, and some people have suggested that politics should stay out of sport. Your movement is keen to ensure all branches give the same reasons for opposing the tour when questioned by the media. Your task is to: -outline at least three main reasons why your movement believes this tour must not go ahead -outline what your movement would say in response to the statement that sport and politics shouldn't mix and to accusations that you are denying New Zealanders their right to watch a game of rugby.

From 1900 up until the mid 1950s an average of 44,000 hectares per year was shifting out of Maori ownership. New Zealand acts continued to be aggressive in their purchase of Maori land beyond this period. (Maori Affairs Act 1953, Maori Affairs Amendment Act, 1965 a.k.a Last Land Grab) In 1975 a new Maori organization was established called TE ROOPU O TE MATAKITE(Those with foresight) This group argued that groups such as the NZ Maori Council and Maori Women’s Welfare League were not addressing land claims seriously enough. “Landless equals cultureless”

The 1975 Hikoi (land march) was led by 80 year old Whina Cooper March began in Te Hapua in the Far North, with Wellington as the destination. It was a journey of 1100km to be made in 30 days. The Marchers banner ‘Not one more acre of Maori land’ summed up their concerns By the end of the march, the petition had been signed by over 60,000 people. When they arrived to Wellington, Matakite began to split based on their preference of petitioning. A group of about 50 decided to tent outside parliament until their demands were met. This was strongly opposed by Whina Cooper, creating a split amongst the group. After discussing his intentions with Whina Cooper, Prime Minister Muldoon had protestors moved out on Christmas Eve. Whina’s cooperation with Muldoon left many feeling Whina had turned her back on the petition. This was exactly what Muldoon wanted, so he wouldn’t have to act on Matakite’s demands.

In April 1978 Supreme Court ruled that the land occupied by the protestors was owned by the Crown and that the protestors were trespassing. After 506 days of protest, 600 police moved in and arrested 222 protestors. Bulldozers demolished the makeshift buildings. The memorial of Joe Hawke’s daughter Joanne, who had died in a fire during the occupation, was also destroyed. Joe Hawke eventually took the case to the Waitangi Tribunal in 1985. Although the tribunal criticized the occupation it recommended the return of Bastion Point and other land, plus compensation of $3 million. In July 1988 the Labour government announced that it would fully abide by the Tribunal’s recommendations. Whatungarongaro te tangata Toitu te Whenua People Perish But the land is permanent

Eva Rickard was a member of the Tainui tribe of Raglan. She was brought up in a small Maori community near the harbor of Raglan. This had been a traditional home for Tainui Awhiro for centuries. During WWII part of Tainui Awhiro lands were sezied by the government to use as an emergency airfield. This was to be a temporary measure until the conclusion of the war. However, at the end of the war the Tainui Awhiro lands at Raglan were not returned. Instead, they were placed under the control of the Raglan county Council who leased the area to the local golf club. What made this worse was that Tainui Awhiro were not allowed back on their land, even though it held burial sites. Eva witnessed the ongoing battle between her Mum and the Council, and decided that action must be taken. On February 12, 1978, Rickard led over 150 people to occupy the golf course. The authorities acted quickly; 17 protestors were arrested and charged with trespassing. Eventually due to pressure from Maori and Pakeha, the land reverted to the Taini Awhiro people in September 1979
