Te reo is a great carrier of culture. Although I am a Scottish born New Zealander, we all have a duty to support the life of te reo and respect it as the first language of this nation. Maori culture has a lot to teach the citizens of Aotearoa and the more we learn the more we contribute to creating a different present and future that in some way may help rebalance the devastation of the past.

I'm doing a bicultural psychology course and learning about tikanga and Maori models of wellness. It is so holistic and in tune with all of life. I think others cultures in the West lost this connection when the industrial revolution started the move to cities. The global capitalist system/empire building of that age also left its mark on cultures there (the Irish celts, the Scots etc)
