Haha I tricked you into thinking I was gonna talk about the wet man but now you're here you have to listen to my primer on all the ways outsiders have profited off of the bodies of Pacific people ahaha please don't close the tab, I need your engagement!!!!!
🚫CONTENT WARNING🚫
There's a little bit of gross stuff in there in regards to early Europeans taking advantage of Pacific Islanders, it's clearly marked though so you'll have the opportunity to skip past it if you need to!
The book I referenced is Michael Sturma's "South Sea Maidens: Western Fantasy and Sexual Politics in the South", so if you want to get really mad then check it out! Plus there are also some excerpts from " Inglorious Dastards: Rangiaowhia raid and the 'great war for New Zealand'" by Vincent O'Malley.

Just as I was uploading this I saw that the folks behind the Māoriland film festival are putting on a 2 week expo of indigenous games, animation, VR and all kinds of good stuff!!!
