Following the 1975 land march, Te Rōpū Matakite o Aotearoa broke into several factions. Whina Cooper publicly distanced herself from a group which established a tent embassy on the grounds of Parliament. The march signalled the beginning of a renewed phase of Māori activism over land that was demonstrated by the occupations of Bastion Point (1977) and the Raglan golf course (1978).
