Ihumatao

We have been learning about Ihumatao  the land issue. We had to choose a side: Maori or Settlers. How would it have been at the time. Here is mine:

“We will ATTACK” I screamed!

I could feel my shoulders rising and hear my deep breathing 

I will get revenge! I thought.

I stared around cautiously I

could see men stomping angrily.

I could hear my whanau yelling at the settlers.

I could smell the gun fire.
