June 6, 2025 - Go Get It by Sepalot (Feat. Ladi6)

Rev Wayne Toleafoa said there was still a need for Pacific activism and advocacy 45 years later.

“There still needs to be people that look at things like homelessness and not only look at our people but look at all New Zealanders and think ‘why are these people homeless and how can I help them?’”

“There’s always going to be things that the Panthers were interested in that all New Zealanders should be interested in,” Mr Toleafoa said.

Despite that need, Mr Toleafoa said his children were fortunate to not have had to face what his generation did.

Dr Melani Anae agreed that times had changed. Back then, they couldn’t walk down the street without experiencing some kind of racism, she said.

“It was something that we had to face, like it or not, whereas today the Pacific youth are confused about racism,” Dr Anae said.

“They don’t know what it is, where it lives and how to recognise it because it is not blatantly in their face like it was for us.

“It is more kind of hidden if you like, in terms of institutional racism, political correctness; all these processes that generally are masking the real motive behind power.”

Rev Mua Strickson-Pua said he believed the spirit of the Polynesian Panthers would give birth to a new urban Pasifika movement.

He spoke of a history that had given Pasifika a foundation, which said “we are allowed to be political, we are allowed to speak out about injustice”.

Will ‘Ilolahia and Vince Tuisamoa were planning to meet with a group of Pacific and Māori activists in Palmerston North over the weekend.

This next generation was a source of much pride, Mr ‘Ilolahia said — and he also very proud of the group’s literal offspring.

Musicians Ladi6, Scribe and Che Fu — as well as All Blacks Ben Atiga and Benson Stanley — are among just a few Pasifika achievers who had parents involved with the movement.
