None of our US presidents came to our reservations and apologized in our language. This was beautiful, and she was very diligent and spoke her best in the language of Samoan and a bit Maori.
Well this apology is a political move and not from the heart.
@@silifaivamusic188your opinion.
@@wrathc53 yes indeed!
Tears!! Not Samoan or a pacific islander but this is how we move towards greater understanding as a nation and we can come to terms to greater maturation and softer hearts towards one another. As we heal, we unite, as we unite, we are better and stronger together as a people and as a country, than ever before. Thanks Jacinda, for reminding us all.
As a samoan, It was the hardest thing to watch, knowing in my heart that our Prime Minister who had no part in the dawn raid give a heart felt apology to those who experienced the dawn raid. I couldn't quite understand why she had to go through the traditional/cultural apology, as she didn't have to, but for her to accept and apologize in the cultural way, has surely shown what a true leader she is and hoping to those who suffered from what happened in the past can all move forward for better days ahead. Thank you Jacinda Ardern.
She's a good actress, I will give her that.
She not a good leader there was no need for an apology
I don't believe Jacinda Ardern is fake. She chose to do this in respect for those who have been scarred with painful memories of the past. I never lived to experience this as a samoan born n raised in NZ, but if I were to put myself in the shoes of those who did, then I'd understand. I just believe she didn't have to apologise in the cultural way, but that's just me personally. I'll forever be thankful to Jacinda for what she did. She's a blessing in God's loving family. She's a true leader in my eyes, someone who stands for right n truth. I'll always respect our prime minister Jacinda Ardern. I'm hopeful people who dont like her will see she didn't do it for herself, she did this for the people who did suffer. May we all choose to live a peaceful path. Live to love and respect one another no matter our differences.
She just did it for the votes
@@yellowgarden5543 why not collin’s would do the same for votes
Sad my grandma didn’t live to see this but great apology. To move forward as a country we need our Government to acknowledge, apologise and learn from the dark parts of our history 👏🏽
To everyone saying “it’s just history”, this directly impacted our parents and grandparents generation … and the ramifications are still felt
Well said ❤️
@@donjorvead2431
I understand your perspective. But not recognizing the cruel behavior of government; and not to bring justice to those communities affected, history will repeat its self. Let's learn from these atrocities and help make our communities a better place for future generations. I say this with mafanafana I lau fatu. (the warmth of love from my heart). Just a thought...
Nobody is moving forward, this apology is meaningless to the Maoris as they will continue to play the victim card every chance they get.
There is no need for an apology. The pm is a sellout absolutely disgusting what she did.
Well said 💯💯
Some of the comments on this video just make me sad. The dawn raids were a real thing, that happened to real people, and apologising for your countries past events is not, "being woke" it's admitting your countries faults, but leaving them in the past so they won't happen today.
Both my parents, myself and my siblings were born overseas. My father is from Norway and my mother from Poland. I have never faced opposition to me staying in New Zealand.
Not ever.
Even after growing up in a large Maori community in Keri Keri and Kaikohe. I was accepted immediately and enjoyed my childhood very much with the people of the far north.
But i have seen and heard old white new Zealanders tell brown people to go back to where they came from. To speak English or dehumanize an entire ethnic group based on skin colour.
Again, i wasn't born here and had a strange accent speaking Polish with my mother in public when i was a kid. Not a single objection to my being here or the language we spoke.
However, when Maori is included on national television, it's the end of the world and geriatric white New Zealand loses the collective plot.
So You'll never convince me there isn't hypocrisy in this country heavily tipped toward a certain demographic who'll moan at the drop of a hat because brown people are getting some form of recognition, compensation or an apology.
This apology in particular, is very much long overdue.
Dawn raids happen in the 70s way before you came to n.z
Thanks uso
The best thing the European brought to the Pacific islands was Christianity, that is why they forgive what was done to them in the 70s to turn the other cheek.
@@TT-jy2db I hate you more.
I am sure that you came and stayed legally . Overstayers broke the laws of the land and were dealt with accordingly .
Wow didn't see this coming, thank you for acknowledging and trying to make amends to what the NZ government had done years before.
never sorry for poisoning our whenua with 1080
@@goatculler I feel ya trust me, there is a lot that has not been acknowledged by the NZ government but I truly feel with all the crap that has been done onto tanata pasifika the apologies should be coming directly from the crown over in England and their government seeing that's who would've been calling the shots at the time of most of the historic tragedies of all our people
The virtue signalling is painful.
Have you got a bucket to throw up in? I have.
The apology is genuine your comment is spiteful. This is 2021 not 1970
What about the real issues. Housing, child poverty, freedom of speech, price of food, fuel, mental health , nurses hard hitting the farmers of this country. Cosying up to minority groups and the gangs. Simply disgusting. Talk is cheap lady. You will be judged on your inactions.
This is just as serious of an issue, which shes done right by. Similarly to how she will do right by the rest of the important issues you've mentioned.
Yeah ah another dummy
Smoke and mirrors, they forgot to mention the Polynesian labour picking fruit on farms who can’t roam the streets
Where is the rest of the video gone. All the speeches and ceremonies etc etc etc ?????
the three hour version of it is on youtube somewhere and is on Te Ao's facebook page
In the bin, with a little luck.
Meanwhile she sends the police out at dawn knocking on peoples doors for naughty words.
bruh, nunna the dawn raiding our people dealt with back in the day was caused by her- yet she came forward with an apology.
Jacinda wasnt born during these dawn raids in the seventies so she didnt cause your overstay problems of the past but you who did overstay need to be honest about why you came to Aotearoa in the first place…just saying
More people out of step with reality. Wake up its 2021. Muldoon iyour hero s liong gone dead
@@adelaidewilson7917 umm wow it wasnt just overstayers and stuff like that please educate yourself on the racism polynesians indured before you start speaking
@@adelaidewilson7917 yet the 2/3 of those who were overstayers were of European Decent.
However 1 feedback would be don’t ever shake your head as body language refers to a no for a positive word which is an apology example “ hold your head up high”. This is can be seen as in authentic
@ Puru you think not ?
I arrived in New Zealand in the late 1960s as a baby. But we didn't come here legally. My grandparents were sponsored and they invited my mum (and me) to come too. But we weren't legal citizens. My mum married a kiwi fella and became legal. However, we were white so there were never any issues with our legal status. It's only in the last few years I really appreciated how differently I was treated when applying for my NZ passport and going through higher education that I was not harrassed because of my dodgy legal status.
Can someone clarify how the Dawn Raids affect our people today? This is a serious question.
generational trauma. our families were separated, broken and our people were racially targeted by the white officials. this directed affects our identify and sense of family as many grew up without their elders who pass down our culture. it’s definitely has had an intense effect on our pasifika people.
They just need to learn to move on..... the pm and the labour party is problem here encouraged by William sio who talks a lot of shit to try and get the pasifika people to vote for jacenda in the next election..
@@linc yes but how does it impact our people today? I can appreciate that racism was a real issue in early and mid 20th century, but I can’t see it still being an issue today 2021.
@@unkown2096 They already have the Pacific vote.
@@cmoore7518 sure did, and I find it a load of sappy hogwash. No one can give specific examples/numbers. Just a bunch of vague / emotive comments. Can you answer the question? 🦗🦗 🦗
Welcome to New Xi-land
Did the apology hurt you because of your psychotic racist views?
Judith Coloniser saying talofa can't wipe away National's association with the dawn raids. Why she stayed home.
wtf?
Labour started it
What a lot of codswallop.
Go back to where you came from
I know one thing Neville can grow and it isn't cott.
Not another bucket head ready to spew up because of their tightly held racist beliefs
Was Jacinda even born? Or still a twinkle in her dads eye at a lodge meeting?
She was born 1980... so not even a twinkle !
More attention needs to be brought to Arderns masonic ties and her total astroturfing to the pm office.
It's not when she - or you or I were born - that's relevant. This is *the Government* apologising and the Government in New Zealand very definitely was around - regardless of who was leading it - at the time of the Dawn Raids. What's more, it was the Government that conducted them. At the personal level, it's also quite possible to feel sorry about something you were never (and could never) have been involved with. How many times, when someone has told you that they someone they love is ill, injured or has died that you're "Sorry"? So that's what's happening here, The Government is apologising and as a secondary layer to that, for herself, Jacinda Ardern is is expressing that she is "Sorry" that the Dawn Raids ever happened to anyone.
@@TT-jy2db Any tips on where I can start researching this?
No she wasn't born, the apology should of been done decades ago.
This is so deep.
Apologise for the future also for whats about to come.
Might be the other way round next time
@@norm4627 I'm just waiting for someone to be racist to me so I can slap them😂send all polys to jail and NZ will be nothing lol we'll all rush the white guards in prison also😂
@@YourMuvva 😂😂😂 some people still have a racism hair on them or they didn't do well in History at school to know the dark days of N.Z.
Sacrcasm plus pandemic plus racism yeah naah.
My family didn't fix my Grandmother car at the time? Unbelievable. 🙄
My Father had watched this and he said it was about time. My father and mother lived though it when they arrived here in NZ from Samoa in the early 60’s
She at it again, the virtue signalling Princess of the Pacific.
Yeah, the Woke, Islam hugging Globalist at her finest VS.
Oh yeah she is a real sellout... don't know why she has to apologize for something that doesn't help with the situation the country going through atm... housing, food prices, petrol& diesel prices. She should be apologising to our farmers and kiwis in general
@@donjorvead2431 lol, everything is political. Get used to it.
@@donjorvead2431 Humans are political beings. You seem rather engaged in it yourself, else why would you be here expressing your opinion and trying to persuade or influence other people with your views?

@@FAMEROB as are german jews, gypsys, communists, disabled & antifascists. Unfortunately they were systematically rounded up and eliminated. Why you should always question these policies?

@@roycasey6899 no , its all about money and wanting something for nothing.
tell the truth
We made the roads built bridges built buildings, kept income through out warehouses, labourers and doing all to feed our families but try to become part of New Zealand! We thank you for apologising to us, but for our brothers and sisters who suffered for so long Who own Aotearoa, TANGATA WHENUA, is who you should be apologising too, the pain and hurt everything they’ve been through, you should be sorry to them, we love our MĀORI people, and that’s not fair, we thank you prime minister for taking the movement to apologise to the pacific community who moved here, but it’s not fair youse take more of our fellow brothers and sisters land our Māori family !
No gestures can MEND this 🤕 hurt. .....
I was correcting the incorrect -accoding to my impaired ears what seemed an incorrect. "subtitle"
2.1 million dollars for tertiary trainimg
1 million for short term.
Vision...
Good on you for acknowledging those who stood up for Pacific Peoples
Yes I lived through these days
Thinking then that the Police needed a great deal more on the job training.
Still think it.
Jacinda you are a most magnificent representative of the CROWN.
Sad we have to still stand up for People with Disabilities.....who are Al as o easily divided., Ignored.shamed and humiliated, even their "ring fenced" funding being transferred to those with louder voices and ability to fight
Are there Aussies over there we all love you and want you to come home.
Where it safe.
Safe? Your country is burning all the time. Your government is a under the hand of Murdoch.
Very heartfelt Jacinda ❤️
Wow very humbling
Mmm was any compensation mentioned ?
Reconciliation does not sound like compensation to me or are you just stirring the pot for a bite.
Doing anything for the clout
JacindaArdern is apoligising for the government of that time for she wasnt born until 1980… im suprised many from the pacific islands people who was caught up in those raids havnt had to face up to the overstaying that did happen at their choice to over stay in Aotearoa .. i recall many island people didnt want to return to their islands of origin due to the fact there was no employment etc..
No sweat for the pakeha to use them as slaves.
Hon Jasinda Ardern blocked our full time work rights because of our skin colour , origin, nationality, race
My daughter & PM Jadinda’s daughter same age but we lost all of our rights?
We cannot go to Wellington nz court , human rights Commission but not accepting our file.
But I wrote many letters to PM , ministers ,
United nation but no response
Pm please we need our full time our work rights because we are NZ citizen.
How come I cant see the comments
Maybe you been blocked
So... has Jacinda fixed the housing crisis in NZ yet or is she still playing politics on TV? Oh right, it's the latter.
She turns her back on more important issues but give an apology to something that happened 40 odd years ago which may I say has nothing to do with the current government.... Tbh If i was the pm I would never apologise to a certain community.
lol, don't blame her because you can't afford a house. Work harder
@@cmoore7518 I live in Australia and worked hard to make a good life here. This can’t be said for the many pasifika families still crammed in inhospitable housing and at worst living in the streets back in NZ. So what now?
@@tc10ish I'm glad for you. So you're just complaining for the sake of complaining then? trying to invalidate the apology with a comment on a housing crisis that has existed in New Zealand since the early 2000s? Why would you do that?
@@cmoore7518 Words are cheap, (it’s even cheaper coming from someone who wasn’t in politics at the time). The year is 2021 and our issues are different now. Pacific communities are over represented in the housing crisis. Jacinda’s housing development projects and lack of action during her time as PM is hurting the situation.
If you want to brush these issues under the rug for the sake of a 5 minute apology that’s ok. Just move on, some of us aren’t that gullible.
Im tongan I cant understand the tongan words shes trying to say like maybe tongan no.2
plunging popularity virtue signalling spectacularly backfires
Poetic bullshit. Good job.
Her popularity is sky high who told you that misinformation was it Judith Collins and her right wing band, thought so.
May the truth save you from your stupidity
@@roycasey6899 roy casey cant wait to get home to blow up his jacinda ardern rubber dolly
Regardless of whether it was virtue signaling or not a formal apology is LONG overdue.
We will find out whether her apology was genuine in her actions following this apology.
well, apologies without action is just manipulation so I'd like to see her follow up policies to this "apology."
Be patient its coming
@@donjorvead2431 Why cant you just accept the fact she apologised? Instead of assuming she was doing it all for politician approve from others? She's fulfilling her role as a prime minister and is doing what have should be done by former prime ministers. Why do you think our country was in a better state than the other countries due to covid? It was because Jacinda gave us strict orders and the only thing we had to do was obey them. We did and we were in the best condition. I'm 13 and Ik whats right?Not so sure about you
I know the saying ''actions speak louder than words'' apply for this specific speech/apology. But she has done what should have been done a long time ago so respect her for that.

Talk is cheap. Are white New Zealanders, including Jacinda Ardern, paying Maori massive reparations for the wrongs done?
I’m confused like why now
Why not?
BLM protests brought racism to the forefront. She's chasing clout.
Good night
And straight after she ignored immigrants waiting outside the building who were pleading to her for being kind
Hey you need to go back to your own country. Your people are so corrupt.
Nothing to do with this kaupapa e hoa. Get with the plan.
@@unkown2096 could you plz pass it onto jacinda who is going to let in more immigrants
It is actually the ones she apologised to are immigrants as well
The apology should have been for the way illeglas were handled , the LAW was what it was at the time regards overstayers ..
Adern should appoogize for racist policies against Chinese peoples and the ill treatment of Takaparawhau (Bastion Point) Joe Hawke and all defending thier lawful right to mana whenua !!

Best apology ever from a sitting government

Get with it, NZ its 2021 and the brown population birth rate is higher than the white man. Ooops that hurts.

How far are we going to go back? It's ridiculous to apologise for things you didn't do. This time is here and now.
Jacynda is very willing to apologize for other peoples short comings, but as far as her own failures to deliver are concerned, such as not vaccinating as quickly as other countries, and not providing the housing she promised during two election campaigns, she claims that the sclerotic delivery is were Labour planned to be! For those living in cars and other peoples basements.......silence!!! Her hollow and soon forgotten promises will be remembered in the next election campaign.
