The art Tatau came from Manu'a in the village of fitiuta not Fiji**
Where can I read about that? I've always been curious about this story.
While the song says Fiti and not Fitiuta
Beautiful! Love the respect to their ancestors.
Don’t want the Malu to be a fashion statement but you’ll have a competition to show it off.
Polynesia is a spiritual area of this world. Long live Polynesia.
Respect ✊ to those who embraces their culture.
samoa are known as samoan when they speak and understand their language and culture regardless pea and malu
The word TATAU means to ENTRUST OR GIVE A PLEDGE in the Fijian language.

How's that thing happened?

People who say ‘ learn how to speak Samoan before getting a pe’a’”are people who don’t have one and can speak fluent Samoan 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
That’s because it’s not just about the language, the language is the starting point of understanding the culture and traditions. Not everyone gets the pe’a or malu just because they feel like it, it’s a rite of passage and not some fashion statement. The tradition is that only certain people can have the pe’a or malu and it is earned. Ka muamua le guku/ulu oga ka ai loa le pe’a. You have to know the culture and be a part of it and not apart from it, tautua. Sadly the culture is being watered down due to the lack of knowledge being passed on to the next generation. Now everyone thinks anyone can get it just because, but that’s not the case. Language is the biggest barrier that people struggle with and so they think it’s unnecessary to even learn it but once one learns the language one is able to truly understand the culture and who they are. Believe me I’m no expert in Samoan language or culture so I’m trying to learn as much as I can now. Alofa aku.
Exactly, I only ever hear that from people who haven’t even experienced the pain of the au.
This is disillusionized belief
