Samoan poet

Samoan poet highlights mother's treatment

Titled Dear Loyal New Zealand Citizen, Grace Taylor reads a letter written to the Ministry of Social Development with a video of her mother slowly dancing the Samoan siva, or dance wearing a traditional pea.

Grace Taylor was motivated to share on social media about her mother's unfair treatment over the subsidy, given she has Alzheimer's and no direct family member in New Zealand to care for her.
