A very special guest host this week, Sezzo: kōtare/kingfisher turned proud Ngāpuhi DJ, writer, curator, and medical student. She stepped on to the mic bringing with her a profound and loving dialogue with her kin Grayson and Hāmiora visiting from Aotearoa for World Pride. Their conversation spanned questions like "what is World Pride on stolen land?" and delved into First Peoples solidarities, the unique challenges and gifts of Takatāpui experiences, decolonial connections and cosmologies and what it is to be visitors on stolen land, and queer Māori futures. So much richness, tears and laughter in this dialogue, we are deeply honored to have been able to share Race Matters with them.
