    Learning to Shut Up this Election: An Ironic Reflection

    • 6 Sep 2017
    • The Free Store
    • When a Pākehā New Zealander expects refugees to move to New Zealand and speak ‘our’ language, learn ‘our’ culture, participate in the jobs ‘we’ need, we’re asking them to do the very thing we couldn’t. This election I don't have all the answers so I am giving my voice to those who have been silenced.

    Break Bread, Break Walls

    • 3 Aug 2017
    • The Free Store
    • A wall can’t go up without a foundation of contempt for the other. A wall can’t go up in a space where there is no division. A wall can’t go up where compassion and conversation take place. Walls start in the heart, and move to brick and mortar when we normalise our division.

    • 3 Jul 2017
    • The Free Store
    • What can organisations do to enable people with lesser financial resources to encourage a desire to be loving towards the natural environment? Do organisations, albeit with the best intentions, undermine this need if their services are not environmentally sustainable?

    Waking Up to the Illusion Of Inclusivity

    • 15 Jun 2017
    • The Free Store
    • If you have come to help me, you are wasting your time. If you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together. This will cost us our homogeneous huddles but will open our lives to a richness and beauty we all desperately yearn for deep down.
