Thousands are expected to rally outside New Zealand’s Parliament in Wellington, concluding a nine-day hīkoi against a bill aimed at restructuring the Treaty of Waitangi’s significance. Critics, including Māori activists, argue the bill undermines indigenous rights under Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s centre-right government. While supporters claim it’s a move towards equality, opponents fear it may exacerbate racial divisions. The event underscores the ongoing tensions surrounding race relations and indigenous rights in New Zealand.
