Sione, Lima, Tavita and Filipo are high school friends, uso or brothers. They are part of a special letter-writing project that helps to start a brave new conversation, an open and honest talanoa with themselves starting with the words, Dear Uso ... Here they share the cultural challenges they face, and without realising it, their need to belong, to be accepted and the impact this has on their wellbeing overall.

Tama Sāmoa is not just a story of friendship, brotherhood and healing. Tama Sāmoa helps us
all to reflect, reconnect and reunite in better supporting each other as who we are. It is also a
story of self-discovery and hope for a new tama Sāmoa code to be created based on real
talanoa and understanding.

Also includes:
- Study Questions For Students
- The Tama Sāmoa Project: A space created for fourteen Samoan male students and educators to share their own boys-to-men stories, lessons and journeys to help today's tama Sāmoa, our tama Pasifika, to be better understood and supported in succeeding as themselves.
