That was beautiful. I use to work with Bianca in a retail magazines store in our teens and she was as warm natured and passionate as she is in her speech. I'm so happy I stumbled upon this and very proud of how far she has come🤗

They should do that immersion program everywhere in NZ!!! It would be amazing for all the troubled Māori youth who are losing the connection to their culture, to regain their sense of identity. This girl is amazing and I pray she continues to make a difference.

Beautiful! From South Africa.

A beautiful and powerful exposè of biculturalism in Aoteroa. Thank you for being a positive role for our young Maori women.

Amazing. What it is like to have to live in two worlds as Māori in a predominantly pakeha world. Your message was so well recieved and I resonated so much with your korero. May you long continue to bring change that is positive to the world! Ngā mihi nui x

This was brilliant Bianca, such a cool talk.

Thank you so so much for this 🌅🌅🌅

Thank You Bianca 🙏

Beautiful kõrero, thank you for the Mahi you do

I have fond memories of Potiki adventures from when we were at Pukewhakataratara, Massey High School. Bianca takes us out to the Waitakere Ranges for a hikoi. It was mean! Stink weather as usual, but it was mean! Mauri Ora!

Love this so much

Amazing. Very proud and very inspired.

You go girl

I love this

This is a beautiful kaupapa and korero - operating from Te Ao Maori to grow tangata whenua katoa especially our rangatahi rangatira!

Are you implying that racism in NZ is greater today than it was in the 80s and 90s because of Ranginui Walker? Because I might just have to disagree with you on that one.

lovely talk....how ever, I come from a generation where maori language, maori culture was strapped out of us....not by the hands of our own people, but by hands of 'tauiwi', non-maori. Moving forward will happen until those wrongs are made right! A national apology to all Maori and especially those who have gone, those who fought to survive... hence why the mamae still continues. Please don't say we are 'ALL NZders' if we are still the minority...

He rite ki te kupu kua kōrerohia. Just like spoken word...... rhyme, flow, passion, presence and pono! Ka mihi R

Hello! I have a school-project about Maori. I was wondering if someone could tell me a little more about it, as I have become very interested in Maori. First off, how should I actually pronounce it? Please take no offense from this, as I mean no offense, I really just want to know. Secondly, how are your lives today? Do you have many Maori friends? What are some current problems you are struggling with? What do you feel about the history of how you were treated by European travelers? Thanks for reading my questions, I hope you'll answer some of them:)

Kia Ora koe Cecile Crusoe Have you learnt much yet as it has been 4 years where are you from and what nationality if you don't mind me asking Its hard to explain how to pronounce our words it's easier to learn by hearing it from mouth to ear plus different tribes have different accents, dialects, lingo and sounds Basics is wrapping your tounge around the sounds like A - sounds like - ah E - sounds like - eh I - sounds like - E O - sounds like - or U - sounds like - ew H - sounds the same K - sounds like the English letter - C M - sounds the same N - sounds the same P - sounds the same R - sound is hard to explain you got to roll your - R T - sounds the same W - sounds the same Wh - sounds like - F Ng - sound is hard to explain 😁 There are only 14 letters in our alphabet A,E,G,H,I,K,M,N,O,P,R,T,U,W and the Wh, sound as well as the Ng, sound Hope it helps

Our lives today ? 😆 Depends on the individual you ask it's a deep complex culture for example the term Maori was placed upon us by Europeans to class us indigenous people of Aotearoa under the same umbrella as one people but we aren't 🤣 every tribe is unique and within our tribe's we have sub-tribes that makes us further unique We never called ourselves Maori for me personally I identify myself as my Father's tribal name which is TUHOE who inhabit the Te Urewera territory So I would identify myself as a TUHOE first an foremost while still acknowledging my Mothers tribe Rongomaiwahine who inhabit the Te Mahia Peninsular territory and my Scottish blood from my grandfather my father's father whom we have never met Sadly he left my grandmother when my father was 2 years old so I've probably got a lot of unknown really close Scottish relatives through his ancestors and his descendants if he went on to father more children And Maori second

Loved this. But as a white person I've always felt quite envious of indigenous people, I wish I could see the world from that deep connected place and perspective. Instead of only reaching out to Maori kids can't she let a few wannabes like me join in too? :)

The505Guys- And there in lies the wound and the disconnect of the White Colonial bloodlines. Amnesia. I feel like if we can all find our way back and live in a connected way to our individual and unique Whenua and extract from our own mythologies we can find common ground and turn this separatist model around. Respect for Culture begins with relearning our own!

There was not much about Maori customs, values and culture.

I´m watching this from overseas. I see that it is also maori custom to fill a supermarket trolley up with chips and alcohol and force your way past security without paying then blame it on pakehas.

? NOT NORMAL ?

Revisionist Maori history. Turns out they learnt alot from the British... It is an intrinsic part of Maori lore that they were indeed not the first to Aotearoa, so how can they talk about devastation and loss of land? Were they not also in a perpetual fight with the tahitians, they would never go to New Zealand. The Patupaiarehe were there at least before the Maori. As too were the red heads, ancestors of Monica Matamua and the Ngati Hotu. The Maori also genocided the Moriori. How can they talk about loss?

Tell me about your warrior traditions. How did they view lazines and morbid obesity???
