Speaking My Language Te KaTrero i TaTku Reo: A story of reconnection to te ao Maori from the New Zealand journalist and news presenter Author: Mike McRoberts ISBN: 9781775542780
Well-known journalist and presenter Mike McRoberts opens up about his experiences of reconnection to te ao Maori and learning te reo, and encourages others to do the same.
'Mike has bravely given voice to the inner conflicts and deep-seated longing many of us feel as we seek the power of reclaiming our language. Where we may have seen him as polished and unflappable, this intimate, vulnerable journey shows another side and will leave you inspired.' - Stacey Morrison
'Ko te kai a te rangatira, he kaTrero - discourse is the domain of chiefs; here Mike reveals the destiny that awaited him, because he sought the sustenance our language brings. He kaTrero rangatira!' - Scotty Morrison
