LONG READ BUT ITS WORTH IT SHE COULDNT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER
"Samoa use to have a Tapu for just about everything in our way of life, how we use the forests, how we use the rivers, how we use the ocean, how we use the land. Now that is virtually lost and forgotten. Our moderness, and dare i say it in NAFANUAS own words, "Pseudo-Christianity" has buried the pure, the elemental, the basic, the earthy side of us that we no longer hear the cry of the land. We no longer hear the cry of the rivers, we no longer hear the cry of the ocean, we no longer hear the spirit world of our ancestors, and we desicrate our surroundings without a care in the world" -Zita Martel

This has been an an going issue that hasnt been acknowledged by the children of samoa and will continue to worsen if we dnt make a stand...ITS TIME TO GET BACK TO OUR ROOTS SAMOA COME ON NOW WAKE UP
