Saturday 08 November | On November 5, 1881 the village of Parihaka of Taranaki was invaded by 1600 colonial troops bent on ending a campaign of passive resistance to land confiscation in Taranaki. Every year on the 7th of November the children of Parihaka and the descendants of Tohu Kakahi and Te Whiti o Rongomai gather at the foot of the maunga to remember the event they call Te Pāhua. In Korero Mai Ahau this week, Eru Morgan talks with Ruakere Hond about the commemoration and the legacy that Parihaka leaves for the tribes of Taranaki and the motu.
Sunday 09 November | There has been heated debate on Waatea’s Facebook page and waatenews.com about whether the Maori action film The Dead Lands perpetuates the stereotype of portraying Maori men as violent. We talk with film maker, actor and linguist Quinton Hita about what makes a Maori film or television programme and how to find a balance.
Korero Mai Ki Ahau a half hour features programme every Saturday and Sunday from noon, which takes an in – depth look at issues affecting te ao Maori. Totally in te reo Maori brought to you by Waatea News in association with Te Mangai Paho.
