I ngā tau kua pahure kua whakawhiwhia a Tā Haare Williams ki te tohu Tā mō tāna whakapau kaha I te ao toi, te ao mātauranga me te reo Māori me ōna tikanga. I tēnei hōtaka o Waka Huia ka whāia e tātou ki tētahi o ana whakaaturanga toi, ko Muru te kaupapa. He mahi tahi ki ētehi ringatoi Māori kē ki te whakatairanga I ngā pakanga nui i tū ki Waikato. Ka rongo hoki tātou I ngā wawata nui ā Haare mō te iwi Māori me ngā tāngata katoa o Aotearoa.
In recent years Tā Haare Williams has been knighted for his work in art, education and his advocacy for te reo Māori me ōna tikanga. In this episode of Waka Huia, we unpack his latest exhibition; Muru, with artists Janine and Charles Williams, and Nigel Borrell in a mural that depicts the Waikato Land Wars and their collective hope for restorative justice from the Crown. We also learn about his dreams for a better Aotearoa for all people.
