I Will Not Speak Māori - Tame Iti & Delaney Davidson

Many will have seen Tame Iti and Delaney Davidson’s national billboard campaign, proclaiming, “I will not speak Māori”. The refrain featured within this body of work co-opts the written lines Iti was forced to repeat on the blackboard as punishment for speaking te reo Māori at school. In this new iteration, Iti and Davidson repurpose this polemic slogan once again transforming it into a prompt for reflection and dialogue.
