Takatapui

Description:

"Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Māori (takatapui) tell their stories and reflect on the journey from exclusion and prejudice to taking their rightful place in Aotearoa. This book is overdue. It is the first book dedicated to the life and stories of takatapui, Māori of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender identities. In these pages are the vitality and aroha, the struggles and triumphs, of people who were doubly marginalised for too long. Takatapui captures first-hand stories by LGBT Māori from all walks of life, interspersed with sumptuous photos in pages of full colour"--Publisher website.
