My why is that I would like to be a part of making sure we don't lose our Māori language. To pronounce te reo correctly. To add to my vocabulary and maybe one day learn to speak the reo. In doing so have a deeper understanding of tikanga.I am a 67 year-old pakeha woman. I have worked for much of my career with māori and in so doing have been a part of developing a deeper understanding of historical events and what the resulting outcomes are.
