DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded in December 2021 and we want to be explicit that some views may have evolved since.
In this episode, we share space with a mother, sister, cousin, granddaughter, Wanda Ieremia-Allan from Sapapali’I, Safotulafai, Saōluafata, Lalomanu, Samoa. Wanda is a PhD candidate in the Pacific and Indigenous Studies programme at the University of Waikato, Aotearoa New Zealand.
Wanda’s archival research traces the intergenerational intellectual gafa / lineage of Indigenous Samoan writing of the early twentieth century in the former London Missionary Society newspaper O le Sulu Samoa. A key strand of her work investigates the ideological, cultural and gendered tensions inherent in the writing and employs Samoan epistemological paradigms to the reading of colonial texts.
We navigate through talanoa topics such as:
Sacred relational space/s Embodying your ancestryFeeling of belonging Women in literature Everyone has powerOwning your vulnerability
Talanoa mai, Kōrero mai
Reflexive prompts:
How do you honour the thought that "being you is enough"?
