Amelia Haszard and New Zealand's Greatest Natural Disaster

Māori and Pakeha experienced the Tarawera eruption together. Both influenced the other's understanding of what happened, and what it meant. We join them now, as we remember Amelia Haszard and Sophia Hinerangi; through their stories we consider the meaning of life and death, of humanity and the environment that shapes us.  What does it mean that their lives were upended by the shaking of the solid ground, the very thing we choose as a metaphor for stability? There is in this a profound meditation and an opportunity to grow in our understanding of what is real and important.
