Moe mai rā e kuia. So sad to hear the passing of whaea Robyn Kahukiwa. Her art has adorned the places I’ve lived since I was young. She’s my fave artist. 💗 ka aroha ki te whānau.
acrylic painting. a wāhine Māori in the centre, wearing hei tiki pounamu and a black turtle neck top with a Tino Rangatiratanga flag across her chest. she has moko kauae, and in her blond hair are two upright huia feathers. text around her says: IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT HAS MARKED THE SURVIVAL OF OUR PEOPLE AND THE FLOURISHING OF OUR PEOPLE IT'S THAT WE HAVE BEEN BRAVE, Moana Jackson.
Robyn Kahukiwa, Brave (2024)
"Being brave can sound like a difficult thing to do. But I look back in the history of our people, & particularly since 1840, & if there's anything that has marked the survival of our people & the flourishing of our people, it's that we have been brave." - Moana Jackson
Ka hiamo au ki huihui! So excited to be presenting in a few weeks at #INIHKD #RIEL conference. I’m presenting on Kaupapa Māori music and healing intergenerational trauma. I’ll kōrero about my time at the Yale archives and my fellowship too.

Many of us are driven by creating a better world for our mokopuna and uri. That world does not include discrimination and violence against our LGBTQI+ rainbow community! #ToitūTeTiriti #ōritetanga #BeingMāori

What was remarkable about today’s TPB submissions was the contrast between the highly qualified opponents and their steady stream of facts, versus the amateurish bluster and reckons of the bill’s supporters
Hoki mai ki Aotearoa. I returned home and had probably one of the best overseas holidays of my life. 💗 however I greatly missed my dogs. Getting ready to go to Yale soon for a short term fellowship. Excited and nervous for the homesickness that will plague me 🤣

Huge shout out to Te Kanawa Wilson. What an awesome submission & delivered so well in Te Reo. And seeing Hana-Rawhiti Maipi respond in Te Reo was amazing. The future of our nation right there. ✊🏻 #ToituManaWhenua #ToituTeTiriti
Always was always will be 🖤💛❤️✊🏾
People will be like “keep politics out of gaming” and then play Final Fantasy 7
