What was spoken out of earshot was curses in disbeleif in Maori and taking it to the street was a way of grounding what was happening. The headmaster had said the school had a new policy and this made the teachers like policepeople. Grass roots level was the place, 'taking it to the street' was how Tame Iti saw his reaction to all the cross cultural upbringing where he was made to write 100 times on the black board 'I shall not speak Maori' Tame Iti said he wrote it 500 times. That she had come from the grass roots and that she had made it to cabnet level to do her work. Tama Iti responded saying Sandra was a very sharp minded person. Whare Mairi was said and written on the board as higher than the Wangana.Īnother questions was asked about Sandra Lee and how this Maaori women had rewritten the Local government legislation. I asked what does Tama see the way ahead when he looks at Whare Wangana o Aotearoa. I raised a question about what is the state of the University for those children who are coming up via total immersian language schools. Libby a friend of my mother had invited Tame Iti to speak and He accepted out of his busy time schedual giving the time and money to the project because he had given his word he would. I approached Tama Iti outside the room by the elivators and introduced myself by saying my wife talked to Tama Iti at the Tuhoe festaval where he said over a stake sandwich that in 1973 he had visited china. A re-enactment of the arrest and shooting was held during a commemoration at Maungaphatu in April 2016 to mark 100 years since the raid. The proceedure after the welcome was to talk a little and then ask questions. Plans are under way to pardon Tuhoe prophet and healer Rua Knana, who was imprisoned for resisting arrest after troops stormed his Te Urewera settlement in 1916. This was my perspective from the lunch afterwards. Weather this is correct depends on consensus but to many are just being lead towards what comes up on the first word search of the computer when the words 'Maaori Histroy' is displayed. What is being taught and researched is depends on what is taught and researched. How this relates to history is that it is written from the persective of the culture at the time. The appology that the crown has given by replacing what was sitting with tangata whenua is analogus to this situation and the bit that was pocketed was the very item most special to the people. Mr Iti appologiesed and replaced the pencil case to then illustrate his point by picking up the fallen item and pocketing it and walking away as nothing had happened.
The example in class was the picking up of a pencil case. As a boy of eight it was hard for Tame Iti to understand how Pakeha had pocketed the land, stolen it in the way that an item is taken. Tame Iti wrote up the words Whenua on the white board, then under this word the Maaori word for taking something. It is a history of Whanau an Hapu first of all.
This Blog is to write up here in New Zealand in Waikato region at the University in Hamilton the lecture and after marth of Tame Iti encouraging talk to the History class on Maori history. at Waikato University with a Guest speaker from Tuhoe. However, 60 of his 70 chairs were stolen from a house in Tāneatua the night before.Hi Roddy Young reporting. He had planned to hold an art exhibition outside Te Uru Taumatua during the protest featuring 70 empty chairs to represent lost hapū voices and to explore the symbolism of power in a post-settlement landscape. Tūhoe artist Tame Iti was also at the protest. "If those elections are run transparently and those same people are re-elected then we will accept that and will comply," Nikora said. The court noted there was no evidence the two trustees had acted inappropriately, rather the election process conducted by TUT was incorrect. However, he has welcomed a recent decision by the Māori Land Court that determined elections held in 20 for two trustees were not conducted correctly and that elections must be held again within the next six months. Nikora said he was unimpressed with the videos released by the tribal authority and those speaking in the videos were directly employed by the authority.
