  • Kapa haka performance of Te Maurea Whiritoi from the Raahui Pookeka Ahurei at Claudelands Event Centre 2020.
    Whakaeke - Haramai ki Te Papanui (00:00)
    Te Maurea Whiritoi welcomes the nation to Te Papanui with this whakaeke that binds together the many strands of the country that have arrived in Waikato, despite the many forces at work that try to prevent this great event from happening.
    Whaikōrero (3:20)
    Waiata Tawhito - He aha tēnei e piri nei ki aku kikokiko? (4:08)
    This pātere is written in a kaioraora style to address the constant racism that exists in mainstream Aotearoa New Zealand. We use this style of writing to inspire fellow Māori to adopt the fearlessness of our ancestors, as well as the zero tolerance they would have had for such attacks on their mana.
    We confront two well-known racists that need to be relegated from their prestigious titles so that their actions do not continue to inspire or authenticate racial hate against Māori within the general public.
    We tell Māori that the time has come to act. We can no longer passively sit by and tolerate racism. Particularly from those who hold much influence over modern day Aotearoa New Zealand.
    Poi - Ko Māhinaarangi Waiwaiā (6:35)
    We live in a world where teenagers are overwhelmed with social pressure to submit to pop-culture trends set by the rich and famous in numerous modern day contexts such as social media. Such trends often dictate how our young people think they need to look so that they feel accepted amongst their peers. This often results in low self-esteem and a misperception that they are less beautiful than they really are.
    This item endeavors to remind our rangatahi of their beauty as young Māori woman. Their beauty extends beyond the exterior. Beauty of the mind and spirit are molded by our mana motuhake and handed down by our forbearers. Our beauty as Māori comes from the gods and our ancestors.
    This song likens the beauty of our young Māori women to their ancestor Māhinaarangi, a descendant of Tamatea and Kahungunu who married Tūrongo of Waikato. The extraordinary beauty of Māhinaarangi was renown across the country and widely spoken of in tribal stories.
    Waiata ā-ringa - Te Hua o Te Kawariki (10:33)
    This waiata is a mournful song that is dedicated to those who have been taken before their rightful time. Life is something special, not something to merely throw away, for everyone has a greater purpose in life. We mourn for those who did not yet come of age to fulfil that greater purpose.
    Haka - Te Toa Matahuna! (14:55)
    The keyboard warrior is a very real issue of the modern day. They are a bully who has very little thought for the consequences of their actions. The immediate consequence is a depressed child. The ultimate consequence is suicide. This haka holds whānau, iwi and the bully themself accountable, and brings the reality of this situation to the forefront of everyone's minds.
    Whakawātea - Kia mau ki ngā tongikura (18:01)
    As we bring our performance to a close, we reaffirm the support of Te Maurea Whiritoi to the Māori King Movement. We also encourage our fellow Māori to take heed of the wise words of past Kings.
    The tongikura we present in this song focus on strength through unity, and the need to holdfast to the law, faith and love, as nothing else is more important. A message that particularly resonates in the year 2020.
