RISING VOICES was stunning last night. The poets, the judges, our guest performers and the audience. The best vibe and energy to date. I realise this is a true reflection of where spoken word is at in Aotearoa right now. Yall know whats up ! This started in 2011 with my bro Jai MacDonald and now we have about 60 alumni spoken word poets and an amazing village to make this happen every year. To our Christchurch mentor Tusiata Avia and Auckland mentor Mohamed Hassan thank you for sharing our knowledge with these poets. Belle Teuila for being the backbone in CHC. My sister Marina Alefosio I could not have done this without you. You are invaluable. So many names and thankyous so I will name you with my deep alofa and respect. Tanya Muagututia Dietrich John Soakai Michael Cirelli Jahra Rager Matthew Faiumu Salapu Rewa Worley Brian Rafiki Gashema and every single 2014 RV Poet.
