    Gotta say, a blind storm god bent on destroying all life because he blames life for separating his parents is really engaging. You don’t get engaging conflicts like that in every culture’s mythes. Kudos

      My grandad, who is Māori, never taught any of us about his culture, its kinda sad.
      I never got to know anything about the history of my family because he didn't like it.
      Im way too mixed to be considered Māori, I wish he told me about where he came from. I don't know how he could look at a culture so strong and so beautiful and think "nah".
      People should be proud to be Māori.

      @@venus_ai I felt that first part. My great grandad never talked about his history because he was messed up by the Kokoda Track campaign and other events up in PNG. We have suspicions that he's Indigenous because he was undocumented and lived out bush taking care of his siblings. He knew the local lingo and was a respected outback wrangler with other Indigenous men. I wish he was able to tell us more, but the war only awarded him with deafness, impaired vision, severe nightmares, and dementia. So I can't blame him for trying to preserve his conscious by not trying to re-live what must have been absolutely disgusting things.

It's sad how ingrained internalised racism still is, especially in people that were "adopted" as a kid and grew up with a white family. He sounds like a good man, just someone who's very confused with his life and I feel that. At least you can continue on in understanding your heritage where he hasn't been able to :)

I've always grown up seeing it when we play the All Blacks and I've always been jealous that our culture here is still so fractured that we've only recently had our own ceremonial war dance to contribute. I actually have a little kiwi bird doll that does the haka and have loved it since I was a kid. Also yes please to videos from here! Also congrats on the recent land back, bro.

Sorry im not too updated with recent events and im not Indigenous Australian myself (Shouldve clarified) Down here in the South West of WA, we get taught alot about the native people of our home town and their language. NAIDOC week was celebrated recently too! I just like learning about this kind of stuff and it would be nice to see the rep for the Indigenous Australians as they are rarely seen anywhere in media or on the internet :) My aunt and uncle (same uncle) have a cute wedding statue thingy with a koala and a kiwi bird to represent them.

      @@pigeon2531 Ah! I thought you were Kiwi. The land back was referring to last weeks decision to return 36 sites of cultural significance as well as deliver NZ$177m in financial redress to the ~46,000 members of the Waikato-based iwi (North Island). That was what happened in NZ.
      I'm in SW WA too! Glad to see a local on here. I've always grown up interested in our local peoples and the Nation I live on (me being Whadjuk Nation of the Noongar Peoples), so I completely understand wanting to learn more about the cultures in our region. 100% for more local representation, especially in supporting greater understanding that will help approval rates for the Voice to Parliament referendum next year.

    To any Maori people in the comments: do you guys want people to stop coming to New Zealand the same way that indigenous Hawaiians want people to stop coming there? I want to leave the US and New Zealand has been on the list, but I don't want to engage in pushing out the indigenous people if that is an issue.

    • @user-dg3ug7ny5d

      Māori warriors actively threatened the British that they would eat them if they invaded, so they're not leaving their homelands that easy or without a fight. Never have. Never will. Also, it's a very different political climate to the US, because the government just handed back more land the other day after they have been protesting since like the 1930s, so the power imbalance is not as blatant in NZ compared to the US. That's sad the Indigenous peoples of Hawai'i are experiencing that, though. I knew about the dichotomy there in how there's the rich, touristy places and then there's the places trashed by pollution and that. I would suggest government intervention, but I know it'd probably cause mass incarceration of the Indigenous peoples, rather than kick the money fuckers out.
