Nelson Mandela

They called him a radical, a rebel, even a terrorist.

But today, Tāme Iti calls himself a healer, an artist, and a teacher.

Tāme opens up about the moments that defined his extraordinary life - from his early days in Tūhoe country and the Māori protest movement of the 1970s, to the 2007 Urewera raids, his time in prison, and the deep process of forgiveness and creativity that followed.

We talk about the protests, the art, the controversy, and the humanity behind one of Aotearoa’s most iconic and misunderstood figures. Tāme shares stories about meeting Nelson Mandela, the moment police surrounded his home at dawn, why he shot the flag at Waitangi, and how he found peace after decades of resistance.

This episode is about mana, identity, and the power of transformation. It’s about what it means to forgive, to heal, and to truly know who you are.
