Young Māori lawyers have paid tribute to esteemed Māori law expert Moana Jackson.
Dr Jackson, who died late last month, was a lawyer, academic and activist known for his work on Māori and Indigenous rights. He used his knowledge and experience to help Māori and Pākehā understand the impacts of colonisation in Aotearoa.
Lawyer Te Wehi Wright (Te Arawa, Ngāruahine, Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Kahungunu ki te Wairoa) told Re:’s reo Māori series Ohinga that Dr Jackson is the reason he stayed in law school.
This is part of our reo Māori series, Ohinga, created by Mahi Tahi Media, with funding from Te Māngai Pāho and the NZ On Air Public Interest Journalism Fund.
Stay tuned for a new episode every week.
