From 2004–2019, Sir Tīmoti Kāretu, Dr Wharehuia Milroy and Sir Pou Temara selected cohorts of fluent speakers from around the motu to take part in Te Panekiretanga o te Reo – an intensive series of wānanga delivered through Te Wānanga o Aotearoa, with excellence in language and cultural practices at its heart. In this volume a group of Ika a Whiro wāhine – female graduates of Te Panekiretanga o te Reo – rise to the challenge of breathing te reo Māori into a selection of key poems by Maya Angelou.
