Te reo was banned - this was compulsory and we almost lost our language

Te reo should now be given the chance to thrive but giving everyone the opportunity to learn about not only what happened (history) but what it feels like to speak te reo maori so the language can be more accepted and grow once more

Agree our history needs to be learnt by all those who have the right to call themselves New Zealanders

@9G4HY2Q from Tennessee agreed…7mos7MO

I agree, learning about customs and history is vital to keeping a culture alive. It's important that people understand where they came from, what their country came from. The banning of te reo was unjust and an unfortunate part of history that people can learn from and correct by reinvesting in its survival.
