The Māori protest at Bastion Point, which began in 1977, involved the occupation of land that the New Zealand government planned to develop into a high-end housing estate. Protesters, primarily from the Ngāti Whātua iwi, established a camp and engaged in peaceful demonstrations, including marches and rallies, to assert their rights to the land and highlight the historical injustices faced by Māori. The protest lasted for 507 days and drew significant public attention to Māori land rights issues, culminating in a police eviction in 1978. Ultimately, the protest became a pivotal moment in the Māori land rights movement.
