Tongans destroy Nuku'alofa to fulfill dreams

The morning of Black Thursday produced already tensed moments between two feuding ideals bursting at the seams with insecurity, mistrust, even anger and hatred. By the afternoon of Black Thursday the riot had taken its toll as cars were overturned, businesses burned down, and most tragically, lives lost. By sundown on Black Thursday, the government signed a petition agreeing to increase the People's representatives to 21, which is the desire of the people who had lived at Pangai for the past 11 months, and of course those for the democracy movement. If the government had agreed and signed the petition on White Wednesday, would Thursday need "Black" to describe itself? - Venisi Uata
