Waka Huia 2024 - Ep 16 - Tohunga

I te taenga mai o te Pākeha, kua tāmia rawatia ngā tikanga ō mua, nā ngā mea pēnei i te Tohunga Suppression Act, tata ngaro katoa ngā kura huna o te ao Māori. Nā wai, nā wai, kua timata ngā wānanga tohunga te ara ake ki ngā hāpori, ngā iwi rerekē puta noa i te motu. Ka wānangahia ētahi kaupapa ki tētahi rangapū e ara mai ake ana i roto mai o Ngāti Pikiao i tā rātou kawenga Hautapu ki tētahi hāpori nō roto mai o Ngāti Mākino. When the settlers first came, many of our customs were obliterated. Through the implementation of the Tohunga Suppression Act, many of our practices were nearly lost. Since then, we’ve seen iwi starting to champion their own. Tohunga Ringatohu: Kimo Houltham https://www.tvnz.co.nz/shows/waka-huia
