And how this led to Hana-Rawhiti, the young Māori member of parliament who went viral last year for tearing the the treaty principles bill in the house.

There are some 60 languages spoken on the Tibetan Plateau. But harsh Chinese policies mean many minority languages may not be passed down to future generations.
