What do our megalithic monuments and artefacts tell us about our past? How might these inform our present?
We're joined by Elijah Lemusuifeauali'i an academic, educator, community connector and traditional carver. In this episode he shares insight into some of the megalithic monuments & artefacts of the Moana and some of his work on Pacific identities in the diaspora. While his ancestral ties are to Samoa & Aotearoa, Elijah shares how his experiences in another part of the Moana, Fiji, has shaped his own appreciation and interaction with his own cultures.
