When Is a Marae Not a Marae?

You have to laugh at the woke hive mind and Māori arrogance, especially when they run smack bang in to each other.

A Sydney-based Māori group is proceeding with its development of a ‘marae’, despite pushback from local Aboriginal people.

Sydney Marae Alliance (SMA) chairperson Louise Cooper (Ngāti Hine) said the multi-purpose cultural centre is to be all-inclusive of Māori, Pasifika, and Aboriginal peoples, providing cultural education, a place for hui, wānanga and events, and will give Māori somewhere to connect.

“It will have the āhuatanga (characteristics) of a marae, and it will encompass all of the things that are natural to us as Māori.”
