Island Time with Damon Salesa

What would it mean for New Zealand to act like a Pacific Island nation?

Damon Salesa explores this question in a public lecture, based on the Michael King Memorial Lecture he delivered to a standing-room-only audience at the Auckland Writers Festival in May.

Setting a course through the ‘islands’ of Pacific life in New Zealand – Otara, Porirua, Tokoroa, Oamaru and beyond – Salesa envisions a country becoming ‘more Pacific by the hour’. 

Join Bridget Williams Books (BWB) at the Otago Museum for an extraordinary address from an inspirational scholar. BWB acknowledges the support of Auckland Writers Festival and Creative New Zealand.
