An important leader in Aotearoa New Zealand’s second-wave feminism –  centring wāhine Māori, and challenging ignorance and opposition in the broader movement – Te Awekotuku (Te Arawa, Tūhoe, Ngāpuhi, Waikato) was infamously denied entry to the USA for being lesbian in 1972. She has advocated for a Māori lens and a gender lens in the museum sector – as Waikato Museum curator of ethnology in the 1980s – and in the academic sector, holding positions in art history and Māori studies. A multi-talented wahine of many pōtae, she is also a curator, fiction writer, television presenter, poet and essayist.

Te Awekotuku will be joined by Stacey Morrison (Ngāi Tahu, Te Arawa), award-winning broadcaster, author, Te Reo advocate.

There will be NZSL interpreters.
