Te Reo is such an important part of Aotearoa's past, present and future. To me, part of fostering the present and future, and supporting my Maori brothers and sisters is normalising Pakeha using Te Reo in everyday life, so other Pakeha can see it as normal and something they can get involved in, rather than separate, or just for Maori. Maori should absolutely be the kaitiaki of Te Reo, and Pakeha should feel like they can and should support that.
