Published: April 28, 2020, 6:59 a.m.

Maikio McGrath speaks about Nga Tamatoa which was a Maori movement in the 70's which her father was apart of, the link between moko kanohi and gang members and how we need to get rid of that stigma and normalising moko within her family.

Maikio is a high school teacher and shares a few tips on how to get started learning Te Reo and how she is able to carry her Moko Kauae in school and allow young people the opportunity to sit with her and talk about what it may mean for them.
