Let’s talk about body sovereignty and what it means to no longer have domain over our flesh, nor clear inhabitance of our choices

With an election on the horizon, it’s more important than ever to pay close attention to the language being used—by politicians, the media, and even ourselves.

‘waiho mā te whakamā e patu’ is mine, as kindly taught to me by my uso, waiataahua.

I’m tagata moana so this whakatauki serves as a reminder to always tread carefully when in Aotearoa and so-called aus. shame is my punishment and what drives me to be a good sis-in-arms 🖤

I tell my daughters that the ‘glass ceiling’ is a white mans myth.

There are no ceilings for us to shatter - white women might have them, but not us. Whenever we stand, breathe, exist, their ‘glass ceiling’ shatters. We pluck out the shards from our size 11 wide width feet and keep it moving.

Alok asked “are you fighting for your freedom or your privilege?” and that really is the q innit. Landback for me (Pacific person living away from my islands) means complete trust in the Indigenous peoples whose lands we live on, not expecting a seat at the table or even the chance to build one.

"I firmly believe that have power too. While the Doctrine of Discovery may have led to a practical destruction of the institutions of that power & the law which sanctioned it in all indigenous societies, the spirit and hope of that power has never died."
