We are joined by a number of the devotees who were at the 21-day New Zealand Parliament Protest in Feb - Mar 2022. Denounced by ISKCON, they went to the frontlines to distribute prasadam, books, and the chanting of the Holy Name at the risk of physical harm from clashes between Police and protestors; and sanctions from ISKCON New Zealand's National Council, who created a novel policy specifically targeting their participation.

They depended on Krishna and His Holy Name to protect them, and put themselves up at issue at a crucial time in New Zealand history. This is their story.
