Tautoko Ehoa. That was very inspiring. What made it even more remarkable was the end shot of the crowd. Predominantly White and elderly (same demographs that most likely was against Maori teaching at school, or speaking it in public) However they appreciated the korero, the interlect you gave to the crowd, demanded respect. Tu meke Ehoa, Tu meke.
