TE ŌHANGA MAURI - PRIORITY #10 - DEFEND THE TRUTH OF OUR HISTORY

The final priority of our strategy is the defense of our cultural "software"—the history, identity, and truth of Taitokerau. Right now, our community is facing "Memetic Entropy," which is a fancy way of saying there is a lot of "noise" and false information being spread about our past. Specifically, myths like the "White Tangata Whenua" theory claim that a Celtic civilisation was here before Māori.

This problem exists because these false narratives are used as tools to create social division and to challenge Māori rights and sovereignty. When we lose the truth of our story, we lose our "Ontological Security"—our sense of who we are and where we belong. To build a future of "Peace on Earth," we must first ensure our foundation is built on facts and the leading of Wairua Tapu.
