#pasifika

Remember that there is what we call haole sanctioned schools in Pasifika Oceania Where they beat you for speaking your Indigenous te reo, praying to your gods goddesses and demigods, or practicing any facet of your Indigenous Pasifika culture It was a facet of cultural genocide in our island homes and a big reason why language spirituality and tattoo revival is important to me as a culture language and story keeper

btw! if any 'nesian wants knowledge on this, let me know: i know how to turn a coconut red naturally for tapu purposes; there is no other ingredient than what you get in the coconut. here's a pic of some naturally dried young coconut husk next to some treated young coconut husk!
