Mastodawn

For the past few days, Youtube has decided that I am now into haka... and of course since out of curiosity and awe I watch each recommendation in full, I do nothing that contradicts this algorithmic surprise.

Anyway, it's super cool so here you go :

Re: #MutualAidHEAT & #PinkPanthers:
@Scully & I have been thinking about non-violent forms of intimidation & combat, moves that communicate to fasc hassling
#Pride marches that they should back tf off.

We arrived at the idea of a queer #haka. Are there any queer Maori on mastodon?

We don't want to engage in cultural appropriation, so we're currently trying to reach out to queer Maori, queers in NZ, or folks who might have such contacts.

If all works well, we'll end up developing a kickass aesthetic for the antifascist queer fightback, for our #PinkPanthers.

...just because, this never gets old for me and this level of proud defiance should be happening everywhere, in every "workplace", courts, etc, all the time right now...

This is a long shot, but I'm hoping someone on here can help me.
I have always been fascinated by the different types of #Haka, and I love to read the meaning behind them. I saw the Haka that #TeamNZ did during the #WinterOlympics for their medalist and didn't recognize it. Turns out it's called Pou Tangata, and it's specifically for Team NZ? I can't seem to find the actual words or a translation anywhere, so if anyone knows it, I'd love to know what they're saying!
