Rangis life changes one night when he tries to protect his mum from being beaten by her boyfriend. But she is badly injured and taken to hospital. Rangi goes to live with Nan and Koro, and during this time, he gets a homework project he thinks is impossible about his mum and her work. He thinks he cant do it because his mum doesnt work. But Nan and Koro know differently and get out photographs, articles and trophies to show Rangi her achievements and abilities as an activist, volunteer, fundraiser and sports champion. When Rangi shows these to his mum and they talk about the stories, she is reminded about her capabilities and self-worth. Rangi is inspired, works hard on the project, and his presentation is a success. Written by Linda Tuhiwai Smith (Ngti Awa, Ngti Porou) is Distinguished Professor at Te Whare Wnanga o Awanuirangi.
