The main message of this song is that to always think about Te Whiti
the line that explains the passive resistance is "Te Whiti he used the language of the spirit
Then stood accused" what they mean by you can't pull out the roots refer to the fact that you can't cover it up and that people will always feel pain about what happened.
they would keep ploughing the fields that the soldiers kept on destroying so the people living at Parihaka and they would replough their fields and this went on and on
how does this song show the significance of Parihaka it shows significance by the fact that it hasn't been forgotten and it is raising awareness towards the events of Parihaka
what make's this event so significant is that is that it was such a big thing that happened is that the Pakeha soldiers forcibly took land away from the residents from Parihaka and the fact that they wrongfully put them in prisons
how much people were affected from this event is around 100 people
how long have people been affected by the events at Parihaka people have been effected by for over 140 years and I would say more years to come the crown did apologize for these events but I think that people would still be effected by these events for more years
To what extent have these people been effected people have been detained for 16 months with no trial some women were raped and ended up having kids as a result and that is all for this blog goodbye heres the link to song
