my work/dame whina cooper

hello guys its Athena and today i will be sharing with you who the wonderful dame whina cooper is. whina cooper is a lady who was born and raised in, 9th December 1895 Te Karaka in northern Hokianga.

The reason why dame whina cooper was such a good person is because she faught for Maori land rights. By the 1930s, she was a significant leader in northern Hokianga, and set up Māori land development.

what i think about dame whina cooper is that she was a really good person and that she actually cared about who she was and also cared about other people too. and she decided to do the right thing. i in my opinion that i just how i think of her.
