PostingCast #22: Honouring Te Tiriti w/ Dr Dani

This week I asked the wonderful Dr Dani @noflightfairy.bsky.com to talk about their PhD Thesis "Settlers against colonialism? Education, organising and the Tiriti workers' movement" which you can find here: https://openaccess.wgtn.ac.nz/articles/thesis/Settlers_against_colonialism_Education_organising_and_the_Tiriti_workers_movement/28039256?file=51224948

We discuss the history of the Tiriti workers movement, and how the Treaty Principles Bill and Regulatory Standards Bill both threaten Te Tiriti - but the response has activated and energised a broad swathe of Aotearoa society.

Where does that go? What's next for the 300,000+ TPB submitters. 

We also discuss the future, and how Te Paati Māori and the Greens are setting out a vision of both a more Tiriti honouring Aotearoa, but also one which asks the question, "What if things could be better? What if we could make them better?

 

Our theme music this season is Virginia Liston's "Evil Minded Blues", recorded 99 years ago in Chicago. 

No A.I was used in the production of this episode.
