Today I had to catch a bus to the Hikoi. I focussed on taking piks the most. This is my favourite shot from up on a deck in the middle of Queen St. It was raining hard out but the committment from our people was huge. The vibe was amazing. It was like being at the Foreshore and Seabed Hikoi in a way. The mobilising of our people makes me proud to be part of it.
This is my favourite shot. I like the way the Tino flow from the air into his kakahu.
Here are the conspiracy theorists at large. Too much girls. We did on the spot interviews for our assignments. I interviewed Matt McCarten, Willie Jackson, and I met a koroua at the bus stop he had fantastic korero.
It was none other than Selwyn Muru, OG Maori broadcaster. He said we need to get into the offices of power and take up those decision making positions ourselves. The importance of brodcasting and Media is huge and he struggled so much in the early days to pave the way for students like us and we need to take it seriously. He also said that no one will hand it to us on a plate and we need to work hard and do it ourselves. We have to fight.
