Well-known journalist and presenter Mike McRoberts opens up about his experiences of reconnection to te ao Maori and learning te reo, and encourages others to do the same.
In Speaking My Language / Te Korero i Toku Reo Mike shares his story of that journey to speak te reo Maori and reclaim his identity. His book is an invitation for all New Zealanders to take the first step to understand why speaking our Maori language and treasuring our culture matters.
