#7 - Imagining Decolonisation – and Why It's Good For Everyone with Tina Ngata
<p>In Episode 7 of the Happen Films Podcast, Antoinette is joined by Tina Ngata (Ngati Porou), advocate for environmental, indigenous and human rights. Tina is based in Tairāwhiti, East Coast, Aotearoa New Zealand, where she’s a busy community leader working for the rights and wellbeing of her whanau/family and community.</p> <p>For many years her blog, the Non-Plastic Maori, documented her journey reducing her personal dependence on plastic, a journey that led to her deepening her understanding of the wider issues of plastics consumption and waste and becoming a prominent activist in that space and beyond. She has spoken for Maori and indigenous rights at the United Nations and in conferences around the world, has published a book of her collected work opposing the continued celebration of colonial history, Kia Mau: Resisting Colonial Fictions, and is continually writing, speaking and protesting for justice for humans and Papatuānuku/Mother Earth.</p> <p>The intention was for this episode to be Happen Films’ contribution to Plastic-free July – Tina being one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s waste resistance heroes – and the idea was to talk about waste within the context of environmental, indigenous and human rights. And we do… but the focus of the conversation turned out to be colonisation – it’s history; it’s day-to-day presence – and what decolonisation might look like. That’s an appropriate conversation to be having at any time and feels particularly resonant right now, within the extraordinary context of this year, 2020, and everything it’s bringing forth to challenge our thinking, our history, our practices and our plans for the future.</p> <p>As Tina says: “Anti-colonialism is not just for indigenous people. Anti-colonialism, anti-imperialism and anti-racism is for everyone – we’ll all get well-being out of deconstructing the ways in which we believe that we have entitlement to each other’s spaces and places and bodies.”<br>We hope you enjoy listening to Tina’s wise and profound words and come away as inspired as we have!<a href="https://tinangata.com/" data-stringify-link="https://tinangata.com/" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-2648"></a></p> <p>** Follow Tina **<br>Website: https://tinangata.com<br>Support Tina on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/tinangata<br>Watch Tina’s talk during the Claim the Future webinar (July 2020): https://vimeo.com/440273174<br>Buy Tina’s book, Kia Mau: Resisting Colonial Fictions (digital download – please koha/gift if you can): https://tinangata.com/2020/06/14/kia-mau-resisting-colonial-fictions/</p> <p>** More about Happen Films ** <br>Support our work: https://happenfilms.com/support <br>Website: https://happenfilms.com <br>Twitter: https://twitter.com/happenfilms <br>Instagram: https://instagram.com/happenfilms <br>Facebook: https://facebook.com/happenfilms</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

#6 - Navigating the Human Predicament with Nate Hagens
<p>In Episode 6 of the Happen Films podcast, with Jordan away spending time with an unwell family member, Antoinette is flying solo for the first time. She had the pleasure of speaking to Nate Hagens, someone we’ve been following for a while now because we love his deep knowledge and insight into the interrelationship between the environment, energy, and finance.</p> <p>Having begun his career on Wall Street, Nate has a deep understanding of finance, but his career took a change of direction in the early 2000s as he began to understand the repercussions of peak oil. His personal research led him back to university and a PhD in Natural Resources and he’s dedicated the last 20 years to educating himself, freshman students and the world at large about what he terms The Human Predicament.</p> <p>Now, instead of Wall Street being the hub of his universe, he states: “Our real stock market is our air, our soils, our forests, our oceans, and the biodiversity we share the planet with. This stock market has been going down for over a millennium and has been in slo-mo crash mode [for decades].”</p> <p>How did we get to this point, and how do we move beyond it in a way that ensures the planet and humans will thrive?</p> <p>We hope you enjoy the podcast.

#5 - Brett & Nici from Limestone Permaculture on Drought, Bushfires, & Answering Your Questions
<p>In Episode 5 of the Happen Films podcast we speak to Brett and Nici from Limestone Permaculture Farm. We’ve made two short films about Limestone, we shot the first one in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSNc13cmknE">2015</a> and the second in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dztgMnaH1rw">2019</a>. There’s a heap of learning, growth and wisdom shared across the two episodes, but a short film is just never enough, even two of them!</p> <p>We wanted to do a follow-up interview with Brett and Nici because during that second shoot there were massive bush fires on the horizon and the farm was in the middle of a long-time drought. How have they come through it all and what’s keeping them going? We’ve also included some questions asked here on YouTube and over on Instagram. Thanks for asking, folks!</p> <p>Enjoy the episode.</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
