At 14 every girl got their moko kauae as a right of passage. With it you carry your whakapapa, your taonga. This is how we korero with others. Its much more than a mark of pride. No matter how little or how much maori you are, or if you dont even know te reo blood is blood and you have the right to wear it

christelle berthon When you talk about colonization do you mean like the moors, the mongols, the ottoman turks, the seljuk turks, the tartars, the golden horde, the huns, the islamic caliphates, the barbary corsairs, the persians, etc.? Here's a fun fact for you: the European age of exploration and colonization lasted about 400 years. Non Europeans have been invading Europe for 2000 years. Despite that we haven't turned into a race of eternal victims like you people.

sharistjohn I think he's justified in saying he knows more about Maori culture than some Maori. For instance, when do you ever hear Maori talk about their cannibalism, human sacrifice or ritual torture? They never acknowledge it so it seems unlikely that any Maori are really taught about it. Also, New Zealand is Europe. It has a European majority that built a modern, stable, prosperous European nation thanks to their European work ethic, forward thinking, and organizational ability. To downplay that NZ is a first world nation because of Europeans is to show your racism against Europeans.

lem farba yet you gonna look away from how we got screwed over by the treaty of waitangi, stole our land, and help during the World War just to get mistreated for our differences, we then refuse to fight just to be shot down. Forced to speak English and leave our roots and culture, to then rebuild what we have lost for you to say “ europeans no more about my culture” then me and my people. Start talking your shit when you actually learn about our language and beliefs not just a fucking KZitem video depicting all the “ scary” stuff our ancestors did. Like Aztecs, Egyptians and even Europeans didn’t do fucked up shit like enslave, steal and murder.

@@lemfarba4827 Europeans never speak of the atrocities they commited! What about the fact that in many townships Maori weren’t give medical care? If Maori wanted a size 9 shoe, they had no choice and had to take the size 12 same with all clothes! Maori weren’t even allowed in some townships and had to live in forests and build there own houses! And this was all post treaty. Were do you think the terms snot nose Maori kids came from? Hori?

lem farba Maori would have evolved like everyone else over time... They were already trading before colonialism came along... And they would have evolved like every other country has done... . But colonist didn't want to just trade they wanted to take everything including the land... Have a look at history and Australia and other countries where they tried to take over and build their kingdom? their greed is so obvious. Their school of thought was.. "What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine".. In saying that we can see that slowly over time they have come full circle and evolved and that school of thought is changing with the inter action between different cultures and people.... So who has really taught who about life and how it should evolve and progress in the future in harmony and respect?.. The Maori people taught them Respect, truth and also sincerity.

If find it funny how these are the same people who down indigenous cultures then turn around to appropriate them, and the people's lands.

I stumbled on this by accident, but I cannot believe the arrogance and ignorance of this man! I'm only an old Australian bag: I know nothing. However I do know (and hugely admire) the significance of the moko kauae. If I were Maori, I would certainly take one if I felt I were worthy. This young lady has humbly chosen to wear the reality of her culture and she should be PROUD. The stupid pakeha principal should do a bit of study before opening his mouth just wide enough to put his foot in it.

I know I’m gonna piss a few people off for saying this so here it goes I remember a long time ago ta moko’s were only for high ranking chiefs, warriors and kuia that were earned over time. And there one more thing when were women aloud to have ta moko on there arms and legs correct if I’m wrong we’ll thought that was tapu!
@mrtnite9780

Actually that's not true. Ta Moko was for everyone except a slave. If you were a fisherman, you had that tattooed on you, if you were musically gifted, that was tattooed on you...Your ta moko told your heritage, your rank, your occupation, and whatever else was deemed important. This belief that only high ranking chiefs had ta moko, was propaganda fed down thru European assumptions.
@mrtnite9780
2 жыл бұрын
As for the arms - that's a modern thing. We never tattooed that part of the body until the 20th century - when ta moko was revived. The legs? Woman have had symbols tattooed down there since the very beginning - most of which symbolized their role/future role as a mother and child bearer.
