Best Answer

The event known as Black Saturday was the shooting of Samoans connected to the Mau, a movement for a free Samoa, on 28 December 1929. New Zealand colonial police, engaged in suppression of a demonstration by members of the group, fired into a crowd throwing rocks, killing Mau leader Tupua Tamasese Lealofi III and 10 others. This was followed by an incursion by New Zealand marines in 1930. It was not until the 1936 elections that New Zealand public opinion turned in favor of Samoan independence, which came in 1962.
