Shaping Pacific Place In Aotearoa New Zealand: Ua Alu Atu Le Afi by Amanda-Lanuola Dunlop and Peggy Fairbairn-Dunlop

This collection of personal stories is a record of our Pacific histories in Aotearoa New Zealand from the mid-1940s to the present. The writers are twenty amazing people, including community practitioners, public servants, musicians, academics and sportspeople. The stories express alofa, resilience and grit in the face of adversity, discrimination and systemic racism. Each contributors shows how by taking their cultural values into everything they do, they are diversifying and enriching our Pacific legacy and the national knowledge base, whilst at the same time shaping new Pacific pathways. Written against the backdrop of a nation seeking to find itself and its place in the world and navigating the complexities of Tiriti o Waitangi obligations, biculturalism and multiculturalism, and Pacific and international diplomacy, these accounts are also now part of the history of Aotearoa New Zealand. This 2023 Dunmore Press Paperback is brand new.
