Parihaka

“Parihaka stands for one of the most shameful episodes and one of the most remarkable and enduring stories in New Zealand’s colonial history. Parihaka continues to have meaning and influence in the present as a source of inspiration for writers, artists, musicians, filmmakers, political activists, social advocates, religious thinkers, philosophers and clergy in New Zealand and overseas.”

This CD was produced to accompany a major art exhibition at the City Gallery, Wellington, in 2000.
