Show Notes
As New Zealand struggled with race relations at home in the late 19th century, some of its citizens were participating in a genocide overseas. Among the most damning accounts of the genocide surviving today come from reports published in New Zealand newspapers. They indicate other New Zealanders were involved in squads that hunted Selk’nam (one of the indigenous peoples of Tierra Del Fuego) capturing them for relocation to a concentration camp, and, in some cases, killing them.
