The Moriori People and Why We Had To Correct History
About this episode
A podcast of two halves this week. Part 1 sees Neil explain to Dave just how the blood of a crab saved him from the effects of Covid 19! It's not even in as roundabout a way as you'd think.
In part 2, the lads meet barrister and Indigenous Rights activist, Maui Solomon. Maui was the chief negotiator for the Moriori Treaty Settlement and he explains how the Moriori people's pacifist society of the Chatham Islands was almost wiped out forever in the 19th century and how history had to be corrected to reflect what really happened.
