    Fun fact - In 1995 my mother took the New Zealand government to court because she thought it unfair that Maori babies weren't given birth certificates in Te Ao Māori, so I became the first baby in new Zealand history to have a Maori birth certificate.

The sad truth is that our culture isn't welcome by some people in New Zealand so it's great to see other nations and other cultures appreciate it. The resurgence of the Māori culture is something I admire and think of every day.

As hospital staff tried to save the life of a 2-year-old boy run over in a Rotorua driveway, a family member swiped a doctor's two phones and a bank card and went on a spending spree. The child died a short time later but Melissa Herewini (A MAORI) had already taken the bank card to four stores in Rotorua and bought alcohol, food, petrol, phone credit and cigarettes.

      New Zealand Hearald news headline 29 May, 2024
      “Raglan man Simon Terence Hamiora Kereopa drags partner outside naked, pours boiling water over her“
      Kereopa ( A MAORI) dragged her outside through the kitchen door by her arms, down the kitchen steps and onto the ground.
      He then grabbed the kettle, which was just inside the door, and poured the boiling water over the victim - who was naked at the time - directly onto her skin. As he did so, Kereopa told her “you deserve it, and that’s what you get”. He then told her he would reboil the jug and pour it on her face. She ran to seek help from her sister but she was asleep, before running into her daughter’s room and hugging her. Kereopa then went into the room and said, “once you let go, I’m burning your face”.
      Judge Stephen Clark noted Kereopa’s 17 family violence convictions, eight of which were against the current victim.
      The man responsible, Simon Terence Hamiora Kereopa, was today jailed for the incident, his ninth conviction against the victim during their 20-year-plus relationship.

      Most of what we see today is the cherry picked best of Maori culture kind of the reverse problem, so not sure kids are getting a balanced understanding even today. For example cannibalism and the boiling heads of fallen Maori enemy tribes was "also" a big part of the culture, the tribal areas that make up what we now call modern day NZ was certainly no utopia before the British invaded, and that part of history is now been deliberately ignored.

      The problem I have is we are cherry picking what traditionally Maori culture was, just like European countries Maori tribes wared with each other and it was brutal, they certainly never formed a united country. Cannibalism and boiling the heads of fallen enemy tribes was a large part of the culture, but it's too unpleasant so we choose to create the illusion the Islands that make up modern day NZ were some kind of utopia before the "evil" British invaded.

They are never mentioned in the media or in pieces like this. I didn't even know they existed until later on in my life. Are they not also an important part of NZ & our history? I just wonder why we never hear about them? Or their language & traditions & their culture? To me they seem to have been totally forgotten about which is terrible, given what was done to them. Shouldn't we be seeking an opportunity to talk about them as well as Maori?

      @@kiwigirl7891 I don't disagree, and the first step is bringing Moriori into the new history syllabus, which is being taught for the first time this year. I know that people are advocating for Moriori to take a more prominent part of it. There are aspects of their culture, particularly their philosophy of non-violence, which New Zealanders would benefit from learning about. There is an exhibition at Te Papa of Moriori history, which is well worth visiting, if you haven't already. I would also add that Moriori culture is still going through a sort of revitalisation right now, and we might yet see a more confident, distinct Moriori identity presenting itself more prominently in the near future.

This science is revealing some fascinating new understandings of human migration. The two I think of right now are - (1) some Black Americans being able to narrow in on the region in Africa that their enslaved ancestors came from (2) reporting that the vastly scattered Australian Aboriginal peoples are less similar to each other than other ethnic groups. It is estimated there were around 700,000 indigenous people when Europeans arrived there.
