Ihumātao

The protest at Ihumātao aims to stop a housing development on stolen(?) Māori land in Auckland, close to a heritage site and historic reserve. 
The protest has been going on for the last 4 weeks and, although the preparation for building has been put to a halt, no solution is in sight as yet. 
A good number of berets among the protesters (of course), but not this policeman; I wonder where else in the world one finds a cop playing a guitar and singing in Māori for the protesters he is meant to keep at bay?
