I guess they are getting serious about reclaiming their freedoms down in New Zealand if the haka dance is now being performed at protests as I see in various accounts.

From Wikipedia.
Haka (/ˈhɑːkə/;[1] plural haka, in both Māori and English) is a ceremonial dance in Māori culture. It is often performed by a group, with vigorous movements and stamping of the feet with rhythmically shouted or chanted accompaniment. Although popularly associated with the traditional battle preparations of male warriors, haka have been traditionally performed by both men and women and for a variety of social functions within Māori culture. Haka are performed to welcome distinguished guests, or to acknowledge great achievements, occasions, or funerals.

I especially like its deployment during New Zealand Rugby matches.
