This is a maori scholar? omg! He still expects us all to bow down to his stoneage beliefs, might as well be talking about the bloody tooth fairy IMO , this is the 21st century not the 11th ffs....
rahui is like a temporary road closure when a major landslip has occured where those who are looking out for the safety of those whom don't wish to or think they have a need to put themselves in danger
Most Maori have more Pakeha in them than me! Ffs aren't we all humans?? Aren't we all deservant of a fair say? If we are a secular society and I therefore can't push my Christian beliefs on them...then why do I have to cow towel to all of this hor ha!! Honestly give em an inch🤏🏻
I agree with you 💯 percent bro. We should all live under the same rules and treat people how we want to be treated, then life would be so easy. But there is to many people out there who think they have the right to more. I believe this land is no one's it was around before us all.
@aperaruapeeta4309 yes you are correct, I didn't know mine because he committed suicide before I was born. What I do know is that we are so much more than our petty arguments over ancestry. Know thySELF-Source Essential Life Force ✨️
A vast majority are accepting...Really? Is he quite sure of that. If he is, why don't we have a referendum to see how on board non maori really are aye
Like tribes of fleas, arguing they own the dog that they live on, all because their great, great, Grandaddy flea was lucky enough to hop on it one day, a long, long time ago. FFS
It's easy to forget history and whose land you live on. Maori traditions, spirituality and governance should be respected. Maori only make up 17% because of the actions of past invaders.
Land we live on? NZ land has many owners. Both domestic and foreign as a matter of fact. I think you'll find the majority have respect for other people's beliefs. The issue is when those beliefs are forced on them and they're publicly funded, not to mention undemocratic in many instances. Polynesians who call themselves Maori were invaders themselves and laid waste to native species. It's obvious you were trying to take a high ground with that comment.
@Elizabeth You know the difference between you and me. You're arrogant to assume that you own this land. Myself, I was born from this land. It's in my body, my soul, and in my breath. When I die, I will return to this ancient land and be part of it for eternity. And there's nothing you can you can do to stop it. You don't own me.
Sailing overseas to find a place to farm & mine, to better resource my tribe, is part of my Norse, Germanic & Celtic culture. We do this to deny these resources to our enemies. We are all flotsam on the ocean of fate this way.
No Elizabeth, that 17% are those who IDENTIFY as Maori. There are many many more who have Maori blood but who choose to identify as their predominant ethnicity. GOOD race relations during the last 200 years, intermarriage and immigration are the reasons why there are more of 'other' ethnicities. Maori numbers in the country grew as each waka arrived from their island of origin and as that happened presumably they began to outnumber Moriori. As Moriori were COLONISED by Maori and ACTUALLY enslaved and cannabolised the numbers of maori came to be dominant. Then Maori being the strictly tribal people's they were and remain to be, as their numbers grew and need to expand territory followed, the intertribal warfare ensued. The true decimation of Maori was at the hands of other Maori in particular once a small number had discovered the advantage offered by muskets, and thus the Musket Wars began along with the slaughter of many thousands of maori, again predominantly at the hands of other Maori. All this before more than a couple of hundred non Maori arrived. This BS idea of Maori being purely peace loving is an Orwellian rewriting of history. Yes colonisation by westerners has occurred, but every culture is colonised at some point. That is how evolution in culture occurs. Inhabitants of the British isles have been COLONISED many times over and long before anyone arrived in a waka in NZ.
Brilliant interview, more of this would be great, Rahui has his head screwed on right.
Fairy tales are not consistent with reality.
Keep telling ur self that then when you die you will find out these are for everyones safety.

The people that feel jilted and feel like they have no say, that's non maori he's talking about isn't it.

Good chat

isnt doing a karakia in a meeting which is solely being run by non-maori cultural appropriation?
