Description
The narrative of the Parihaka community sheds light on a critical period in Aotearoa's colonial past. As the government seized their land, Maori communities across the region engaged in non-violent resistance, with Parihaka emerging as a powerful symbol of defiance under the leadership of Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kakahi.
Rather than a history of Parihaka itself, Hazel Riseboroughs compelling account delves into the governments systematic efforts to dismantle Maori rights and self-determination. First published in 1989, Days of Darkness is published now in a new edition which includes opening words contributed by the Parihaka community.
The new edition is a straight re-issue of the 2002 book (long out of print), with new cover, design and images, along with new opening words from people at Parihaka.[
Hazel Riseborough's account is essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand critical aspects of New Zealand's past - Riseborough has presented a study in quintessential colonialism, or the assertion of European supremacy. It is a part of New Zealands history which has to be recognized and not buried. - Judith Binney
