@damien_levi Yeah, there's a Korean festival in the city at Freyberg Square area. Free concert with Peak Boy and Paul Kim! And I think Alexa is there as a special guest. And there's a club night on after that as well with korean DJs
And afterwards my team was like, yeah everyone has had a run in with her. She's good at her job but her high and mighty attitude sucks a fat one. Like calm down mate, you don't need to get snarky and defensive about some constructive feedback.
Colleague thinks she knows how to facilitate because she's "been doing it for 25 years". Then shouldn't you know how do it properly by now, because facilitating a discussion shouldn't be just you talking at us solely about your own ideas the whole time...
I'm SO glad she works from a different office and I don't have to see her often because I may have had an slight argument with her at the team supervision because of this and the fact she was being a know-it-all bitch.
When you say "Well, it was the elders who told them not to speak Māori" yeah, that's the problem right there!
My Great-Grandfather refused to speak it with his tamariki because that's what they were conditioned to believe. The Pākehā way was the only way forward. #speaknomāori
Don't you just love it when people talk on topics like they're an expert to you but it's about something that you actually have more knowledge and experience than they do?
Think someone should be watching Speak No Māori tonight... Mostly because they think they "know" what Māori went through and why, but it's actually just racist and from a yt colonial pov 🥲
