One of the young people, who is part of the group of individuals chosen for the HYPE Photoshoot is Vaimoana Niumeitolu. I will feature her later with the rest of the other individuals, but I came across one of her performances in NYC, where she is performing her poem entitled Manatu'i (Tongan word for "remember") and decided to post it for our readers!
She is an amazing young woman who left Provo, Utah at the age of 18 to pursue her dreams as an artist/poet!
She is part of the Mahina Movement and they just released their first CD Speak the Fire this past April 2008! Enjoy!!!
