This is an excellent collection of interviews with people arrested in, or closely affected by, the New Zealand police "anti-terrorism" raids of 15 October 2007. Whatever your opinion of those raids - and personally, I think they were the outcome of a police force desperate to make use of its shiny new anti-terrorism powers, and a Government keen to suppress Maori and particular Tuhoe campaigns for self-determination - this book is well worth reading.

"On October 15th 2007 an estimated 300 police raided houses all over Aotearoa New Zealand and arrested people based on warrants issued under the Terrorism Suppression Act. Lives were turned upside down as the police searched for evidence of 'terrorism'. This book is a collection of oral history interviews of people affected by those raids and the aftermath: defendants, friends, family, supporters and other people subject to the State's coercive powers on that day. The case is the first ever attempted use of the Terrorism Suppression Act, a piece of legislation enacted in response to the 9/11 events in New York and Washington D.C.. The terrorism charges were not brought, but the people arrested continue to face a long journey to freedom as the state seeks to punish political activists and to reinforce the status quo." -- Back cover.
