I feel short changed, having been born and raised in Aotearoa, that I was taught no reo, tikanga or history - our own history - at school.
150 years of rubbing shoulders with Maoridom has made pakeha who we are - different from other former colonial countries like Australia, Canada and the USA.
I'm now setting out to redress my lack of education in te Reo, Tikanga and what it is to be Maori.
