Takatāpui have always been a part of Te Ao Māori. We have lived and loved in these motu since time immemorial. We deserve to have a place on our marae, in our whānau, hapū & iwi. We deserve to feel respected in these spaces without having to leave parts of ourselves at the door.

I riro whenua atu, me hoki whenua mai/As land was taken, so land must be returned.

Anyone who has spent time at Ihumātao knows just how special that whenua is, and how hard mana whenua have fought to protect it, this whawhai is not just for Ihumātao but for all of Māoridom.

AOTEAROA KI HAWAI'I, WE STAND WITH MAUNA KEA.

As Māori, we understand all too well the anguish that comes with the desecration of our whenua and we stand in solidarity with the people of Hawai'i.

Manaaki whenua, manaaki tangata, haere whakamua.
