Cousins in the Car: A Poorhara Road Trip with Michelle Rahurahu

  • McLeavy Gallery 147 Cuba Street Wellington, 6011 New Zealand (map)
 

Jump in the passenger seat, cuz, we’re going for a road trip. Erin and Star pack themselves into a 1994 Daihatsu Mira and head out freewheeling on the backroads of Aotearoa with responsibilities, mamae and 178 years of colonisation packed up in the boot.

Michelle Rahurahu’s (Ngaati Rahurahu, Ngaati Tahu-Ngaati Whaoa) Poorhara, is a journey at its beginning that quickly reveals the way forward isn’t all plain sailing. Joined by essa may ranapiri (Ngaati Raukawa, Te Arawa, Ngaati Puukeko, Clan Gunn, Takataapui) in the driver’s seat for this kōrero, these two friends take a ride through the novel, their shared kaupapa and more.
