Kōrero: Ngā tuakiri hōu – new Māori identities

'Tihei mauri ora!' E kauhau ana a Thomas Mason i tana whaikōrero ki te whakataetae ā-rohe o Tāmaki mō Ngā Manu Kōrero, i tū ki te Marae o Hoani Waititi i te tau 2007. He tauira a Thomas nō te Kura Māori o Ngā Tapuwae ki Māngere. I toa ia i te wāhanga reo Māori mō te rohe, ā, i whakatūhia ia hei māngai mō tōna rohe ki ngā whakataetae ā-motu i taua tau anō. Kei muri i a ia ko te whakaahua o Tā Āpirana Ngata, te rangatira o te Tai Rāwhiti, te tangata nāna i akiaki ngā rangatahi Māori kia whanake i roto i ngā ao e rua. He kura rūmaki reo Māori Te Kura Māori o Ngā Tapuwae mai i ngā tau 1–13.
