Hikoi Āwhiowhio
Date: 02/05/2025

Hikoi Āwhiowhio is a collection of stories told by those from Te Tauihu who joined the Hikoi in 2024 to protest against the Treaty Principles Bill. These stories are woven together by poetry by Donna Mcleod.
The journey starts at Kaiteriteri beach with karakia acknowledging the Nelson Tenths and unresolved grief, following the ferry trip and plane flights across Te Moana o raukawa - Cook Strait, to marching, to standing before the Beehive.
These are the voices of pepe, tamariki, rangitahi, pakeke, kaumatua, and whanau. Through waiata, haka, karakia, Whiti and korero in Te Reo Māori, English and other languages and taonga puoro, their stories are told. This is intergenerational this is bicultural, this is multicultural, this is Aotearoa.
