Karapu Lit: Karapu Pukapuka Soarers
Tuscaloosa me Northport, Alabama
E RUA TEKAU TAU KI MURI I te oranga ake i te pokanga roro me te whānautanga o tētahi tamāhine hou, i whānau mai ai tētahi karapu pukapuka hou. Nā te hiahia o CW kia noho tahi ōna hoa me te hiahia kia whai wāhi anō ki te mahi tahi, i puta ai te Karapu Pukapuka Soarers!
He aha te tikanga o te ingoa o tō karapu?
I tētahi wā i tana kōrero ki tētahi rōpū rangatahi, i hoatu e CW tēnei tohutohu ki ngā rangatahi:
S -Tirohia te ao e karapoti nei i a koe;
O -Tukua koe kia aro atu ki ngā raruraru katoa e kitea ana e koe;
A -Whakaaetia kāore e taea e koe te mahi i ngā mea katoa;
R -Kia mahara, i roto i āu mea katoa, me waiho a te Karaiti ki mua.
I te wā e whiriwhiri ingoa ana tā mātou rōpū pukapuka hou, i tino pai te ahua o SOAR mō tētahi rōpū wāhine e huihui ana ki te tūhura i te ao pukapuka!
E hia ōu mema?
Tekau mā rua mātou mema i tīmata, engari nā te hekenga o te maha o ngā mema, e waru noa iho ngā wāhine whakamiharo i mahue mai.
He nui ngā pukapuka e rua tekau tau – he maha rawa ngā pukapuka hei whakarārangi i konei. Me pēhea te kōrero mai ki a mātou i tāu e pānui nei?
Kei te pānui mātou i tēnei wā Mea atu ko koe tētahi o rātou nā Uwem Akpan.
He tino pai ki a koe tētahi o ngā tau kua pahure ake nei?
E whakaae ana te nuinga o tātou He Akoranga I mua i te Matenga nā Ernest J. Gaines te pukapuka tino pai kua pānuihia e mātou. Koia hoki te kōrero pai rawa atu!
He maha ngā take rerekē o te pukapuka hei tātari – te kaikiri me te whakahāwea i te Tonga. He take anō hoki te Atua me te whakapono. Ko te hunga mātau me te hunga kore mātau; i ara ake anō hoki te wairuatanga me te rangimārie i te wā o te matenga.
I roto i a Grant te pakanga me te pōuri, i whakapono tuatahi ia he kore noa iho āna mahi katoa. E pā ana tēnei ki ētahi o ngā take i kōrerohia e mātou. He rawe!
Kei hea āu hui e tū ai?

Mā te tangata e manaaki te hui e whiriwhiri te pukapuka e whai ake hei pānui.
