I am Maori from Aotearoa (New Zealand), and I appreciate your heartfelt reaction to one of our country’s most precious sons and Taonga - Stan. He truly walks with all of his Tipuna (ancestors) around him.
youre mainly european stop disowning yourself ffs
Start acknowledging your mainly European colonist ancestry instead of disowning it
I’m so glad you reacted to the live version and got to sort of know him as a person. Stan is such a sweet soul with a big heart.
The Māori language was suppressed in schools, either formally or informally, to ensure that Māori youngsters assimilated with the wider community. Some older Māori still recall being punished for speaking their language right up to the mid 80’s. Māori was made an official language of New Zealand under the Maori Language Act 1987.
It was Maori who petitioned the crown to ban the speaking of tereo in native classrooms in 1876 , because they wanted their children to have a better future speaking english .. So blame maori for that . Though the maori of those times were wiser unlike the part maori fools today. Wise up.
From his audition in Australian idol singing John Legend’s Ordinary People to the world stage singing his own songs…so proud of you Stan!
Isn't it interesting how all those Australian Idol judges back in the day kept harping at Stan to move around the stage and here he is, standing in one place, delivering an emotional performance that draws you right in. I still believe that he will perform this song live at the Academy Awards.
My father was from the generation that were beaten for speaking Maori. During the 50s the colonial government tried to stamp out the Maori culture
Yes sadly so was my dad and his siblings. So we missed out on our language and culture. Generations missing out! Am trying to learn now.

My late grandmother was beaten for speaking Diné (Navajo), taken from her parents put into boarding schools, given white names, cutting her hair. Striping her identity of who she is. She tell us stories about her boarding school days. Tears would run down her face telling us about it. But, at the same she also teaching and installing in us to never forget. Never forget who you are,where you come from your parents and speak Diné no matter where you go.

@@user-cz9pp9rn4y honestly you’re disgusting
Stan is a talent for sure but more importantly he is an incredible ambassador for Aotearoa NZ❤
Beautiful respectful reaction, thanks for sharing more of our Stan 🙏🏽
Ahhh no problem! He's actually a joy to watch!! 😊❤️✨️
Room 2703, I'm soooo glad you found this version of "I Am". I love the respect you gave by fully listening to the clip, nothing worse than someone ruining a song by talking all the way through it. Its awesome when you just click with a song as soon as you hear it. A connection within you. Fantastic live version. 🥰🥰
❤ thanks for reacting to this. Awesome ❤ Stan performing live is amazing. I've been to many of his concerts. So proud of him. Thank you for this reaction.
It was made law in NZ in 1867 that Maori language was banned in schools.
Even 100 years later my parents "hit" for speaking Maori. In the last 50 years there has been huge progress with Maori becoming the second official language in NZ and now this year after the recent election our new coalition government wants to get rid of "Maori". We are protesting and petitioning that this won't happen. Stan brings out this song "I am" at the right time. It's like an anthem for us.

Your connection to your culture is truly where your musical gifts are at, amazing interview, love it . . .😀
Aotearoa, NZ was colonised brutally, cruelly by Britain and their Catholic missionaries. Our ancestors were stripped of culture, language, spiritual values, our medicines, and connections to our environment. We were forced off our lands. We were successfully trading to the America's. Britain introduced disease, alcohol, meat, drugs greed, and christianity.
For all of that, we have a treaty with 2 interpretations. The Crown and Maori. Maori took the NZ government to the Privy Council in the 90s and won because we didn't cede sovereignty. Crown interpretation posits we did. We still fight for our rights today with the new right-wing government.
The difference today is our young Pākeha (non-Maori) supporters, and we're ready for the fight this time. Our young people together are strong in the combined culture. We've carved an identity that is unique to us in a language we can share, but today's government feels threatened by it. Colonialism attachments to the past.
It surprises me that this colonial history isn't taught in schools of Britain. We blame the greedy land grabbing politicians. This was their M.O. internationally.

So today was my first time seeing this song from Stan, I love it, I felt the emotion of the songs message. Being Maori myself just made me feel proud of Stan and made me revisit my own origins. Yes, when we were colonised, our ancestors were not allowed to speak Maori. We lost our language, and it's still being revived today. However, unlike Stan, I'm one of the descendants that was not taught our language. My dad was fairly traumatised so in our home we lost that ability. Love the song, look forward to watching the movie 'Origin'.
I'm enjoying your journey of discovery of Stan. He is an amazing talent and an exceptional human.💖💖💖
Christian Mission schools in NZ as the same as Australia, punished children whenever they spoke their native languages. They were physically beaten and psychologically abused for it, and also sexually abused as well! It's an awfully shameful past that colonizers forced onto indigenous all around the world! This is what Stan means when he said that his grandparents, and great grandparents were punished for speaking their own language.
Those very same Christian Schools did the same thing to every indigenous community they contacted, from the Native American Indians, the African American community, South American people, Māori, Australia, Africa - the people were punished for being who they culturally were. All in the name of Christianity. All in the support of their Caste System, which stands today.
@@Az-co4pqyes. Colonizers did this to pretty much every indigenous culture whenever they went. Christianity taming and re educating the 'savages'...usually by force, intimidation and abuse.
...and they took their tamariki (children) like so many other cultures had done to them

Thankyou for informing me of the petition, even if in a totally unessesarily rude way. I am not averse to the fact that you are proving my point of rascist hate with your comment. But, hey.. you keep doing you, mate. @@user-cz9pp9rn4y
Stan in person is different from Stan the singer. He has jokes for days but with his craft he is next level proffesional. His idol as an artist is Beyonce, who he opened for when she was in NZ.
He's become more immersed in his culture now and it's like that's strengthened his backbone and is out in the world, loud and proud to be Maori.
But he's also shy, humble, like just one of the humblest people I've seen and introverted.
He's carrying his culture on his skin, in his heart, with his words and in his actions.
Honestly he blows my mind on every level as a performer and a person.
Glad you are looking into the man and not just the singer.
Nga mihi
❤️❤️
So stan is a fool who has little knowledge about the past and an even bigger fool liking beyonce a talentless baphomet
Do look at the video of Stan having surgery for stomach cancer. The video he developed shows a lot about his culture.
Yes my father was hit for speaking māori at school.
My grandfather was the most māori person you would ever meet but couldn't speak our language due to this system.
My father was hit in school in Rarotonga for speaking (Cook Island) Maori and because of this he never spoke it at home around us kids and we never learned it. We were also very much affected by the same system. However, our cultural dance and drumming is strong within myself and our siblings.
He is Us and We are Him!!!
That’s what it means to me to be Maori.
Knowing who, what and where we belong helps guide us to taking our place in the future.
Guaranteeing our continued place in Eternity.
Everyone has a culture!
My Koro fought in WW2 as part of C Company's 28th Maori Battalion and came home a changed man. My father was caned in school for speaking Te Reo and I grew up thinking being Maori was bad, not knowing much about my history or who i was and where i came from. I have since got in touch with my history via various whanau members to learn my Whakapapa, and have found my Wairua and have passed it down to my daughter... and now she can grow up unashamedly Maori:) too meke Stan... Aroha nui
Kia Ora - yes, I remember my grandmother saying our people were beaten for speaking our native tongue in school (beating the language out of them), because they suffered they didn’t want their children, my mother’s generation to go through the same things they went through therefore we have a generational language gap in our history, my mother & siblings do not speak Māori in some areas of Aotearoa (NZ), when I went to school the language was slowly being introduced & todays generation (due to our people fighting for equity) we now have Kohanga Reo (preschool), Kura Kaupapa Māori (5-18yrs) full immersion Māori schools etc here in Aotearoa. Today, we still fight for equity, our reo (language), health services and more…
Yep
What a beautiful and insightful reaction ❤
Awww. thank you!! 😉💖
New light is another beautiful song
❤️❤️great reaction, Kia ora bro for watching Stan,he our fav maori boy, and then many more like him that sings like him here in NZ. Our Kapa haka group.
Back in the 70, brits banned our parents from speaking our language
Awesome reaction❤️❤️
We like a lot of colonised countries have a shameful past where cultural genocide was a common practice.
However there has been a massive movement since the 1980’s to repair the damage.
Te Reo Maori is taught in play centers, kindergartens, primary schools, intermediate schools, High schools and universities.
In the region where l live in New Zealand it is getting harder to find an English based school, as many are switching to Te Kura.
However, English is also taught in Te Kura schools, as we require English to participate at a domestic level and in a global world.
Te Reo Maori is to me, one of the most beautiful languages spoken.
Ēhara tāku i te toa takatahi, engari he toa takitini.
Our strength is not made from us alone, but made from many

So blame maori for that . Though the maori of those times were wiser unlike the part maori fools today. TeReo modern day is 90% fabricated over the last 36 years. Wise up.
Been waiting for a reaction of Stan's live ❤ still gets me totally breathless xx
Stan Walker a amazing singer from my home country Aotearoa who sings in Tr Reo his native language which i feel was sad we were not able to learn as children and as a Pakeha (white) was so wrong. Being older I have learnt lots of Te Reo but want to learn more as it is part of all who live in our wee nation of Aotearoa it is who we are.
❤ your content, brother. Shout out from N.Z
Ahh thanks so much!!! The next Part should be out on TH-cam this week! 😜❤️
I'm 50 and when I was at school we were taught oma rapeti (run rabit) and aeiou (a song that teaches how to pronounce the Maori vowels), but outside those moments, kids would get the strap for speaking Maori. It made no sense and was one of the many things that contributed to making me feel unsafe at school.
I'm 26 and I can no longer speak Maori I lost it, when I was in primary school I was told that it was savage to speak my language, I'm hoping to learn te reo again
Yes my mum wasn't permitted to speak Te Reo Maori at school. The Government tried to iradicate our language. So much so she never taught me the language which is sad as my children don't know it either. The flow on effect is huge.

Cantor maravilhoso. Não conhecia. Vou começar a segui-lo ❤❤
Great !!
Kia Ora my bro love your reactions to our Stan could you please react to Stan’s live version of I am the colour ❤
❤
My parents were beaten for speaking te reo maori also my grandparents not only that they tried to breed out the bloodline. Its something that never gets achknowleged but its still remains in our native people's mind.
Wow... that's awful. Thank you guys for sharing that knowledge with me! ❤️
From the on set of colonisation education was used to assimulate the Māori people into the english way of thinking. As a result Māori were not allowed to speak their native language during school.
When he says "fought and died" he means the Colonial Wars; and then having to fight for our rights and the preservation of our language and culture under the Treaty of Waitangi.

Everything is important and when you know who you are and where you are from you are a superhero. Interesting because here in New Zealand our newly electly government are suppressing our Maori language by law. Internationally hot locally not. TOI TUI
❤❤🙏🙏
I will say that I am maori!
Māori were beaten for speaking te reo Māori (the māori language) in schools because the colonisers didn't like it. they couldn't understand it. so they abused children who spoke it, or who were reported on for speaking it. such was the widespread nature of coloniser abuse, Māori stopped speaking te reo and the language almost became extinct. That, however, has changed. New life is being breathed into it, more māori are able to speak te reo and it is even being picked up by non-māori, in particular Europeans, much to the chagrin of their colonial boomer predecessors.
Stan is pushing the cultism of Maori tribalism , he is a very dangerous separatist imo
Hey, thanks for watching, if you did! I don't get that vibe to be honest - just a guy who's bringing pride and joy about his roots and culture - beautiful to see! ❤️✨
@@Room2703Reacts the reason you don't get the vibe is because that's your cuddly feel good perception is totally lacking perspective. The big picture is separatism is being pushed in NZ and many Maori are wanting entirely separate systems and advocacy for Maori only health, education, justice , welfare systems etc. That's apartheid. Its a cult and group identity politics reinforces an ""us and them" ideology. The same is happening with LGBTQ , its now turned into a diabolical cult pushing paedophilia, and transgenderism into schools.
There is nothing beautiful about separatism, so think again and get some perspective on the whole thing instead of enabling evil!
