I marked the placement in this pukapuka—this book—with a feather when I was walking this morning and I stopped and looked down, and there it was. It was a tohu—it was a sign. It is not the albatross feather. But those of us who know the history of Parihaka, which is well enshrined and written into New Zealand history—many do not know the history of Moriori and the covenant of peace of the karāpuna Nunuku and the significance of the albatross feather and how that was carried by the people of Taranaki who invaded Rēkohu and took that symbol back with them. We well know and associate the white feather of Taranaki with Parihaka. The rightful place in New Zealand history is that the albatross feather has its origins with the people of Rēkohu, te imi Moriori.
