Korero Mai - Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th June 2014
Saturday 28 June 2014:
Tunui McLean
It's been a tough few weeks in Mangere, with a 10-year-old boy fighting for his life after being stabbed with scissors in a fight, a knife used in a fight at another school. There's also been community rage and frustration that they have been unable to stop the opening of a liquor outlet across the road from the Southern Cross Campus. In KKM this Saturday, community worker Tunui McLean talks to Eru Morgan about the scramble to get liquor licenses before a change of law, and about the effect alcohol and unemployment are having on the community.
Sunday 29 June 2014: Parekura
Kupenga
Ngati Porou kaumatua Parekura Kupenga
talks about Matariki, a time to reflect those who have gone
as well as a time to make a new beginning. Now it has become
a time for Maori-themed concerts and festivals, but Parekura
remembers that growing up Matariki was important to his
whanau as a time for harvesting and planting kai.
