In an extended interview, Te Pāti Māori co-leader Rawiri Waititi discusses racism, Te Tiriti, working with National and his vision for Aotearoa hōu with Mihingarangi Forbes.
Made with the Support of TMP. Public Interest Journalism funded through NZ On Air.
Interviewer does a great job in not questioning his assertions. And an excellent reader of her questions
Giving the ol' soft shoe... as they say.
Wearing a hat inside -
The highest form of lowety personified.
An absolute grub
The oppressive system has given education, hospitals, roads, schools, employment, cowboy hats, glasses, opportunities to get into politics. If we keep on wanting more and more redress where does that take all New Zealanders?
Got in on the crossbenches with just over 3% in the votes, Rawiri thought luxon would contact him but luxon didn't want any part of it and built a coalition with Act and NZ1st. All that TPM is doing in the house is throwing stone's at the new Government especially at Matua Winston but all their efforts are getting them nowhere 😂
it’s almost like when you have a respectful considerate interviewer the interview goes well or something . super weird
Can we please get mihi more time to do more in depth interviews.
30mins is nowhere near long enough!
You want to be a role model for young Maori of today, a force of good. Consider one day when you are no longer a MP, you have to get a job(everybody does). A face tattoo(though full of mana within Maoridom) and a cowboy hat persona. In the ocean of all kinds of employers (they drive the economy, generate money), who will just see you as a person, you cannot tick that they are racist if they won't give any person like that a job, not even to me. A longer term idea to mull over.
the ways of the world aren’t all the ways ahead. I hear you but can’t help but think as we move even more heavily into a tech era that individual aesthetics of ppl will continue to be secondary to their skillsets offered.
Tell some phooey at the hui. Bib required, please provide.
Pretty one sided journalism
May as well be part of the party pitch lol
yeah i think she did these for most of the parties
Yeah she only agreed with everything he's saying though, all the other parties she just flat our refused to agree with them on anything.@@Fractal666
Check out Sean Plunket. He’s an absolute dickhead. This lady is far more professional and classy than
This is how a journalist is supposed to interview. Rawiri is how a politician is supposed to answer. Only a right government and journalist behaves the opposite.
Nga mihi nui mo te korero
You'd think that on a $170K salary; he could afford a new pair of trousers, to compliment his massive range of colonialist-style of hats?
Maori benefit from the tax system far more than they contribute to it
Oh shut up no we dont

Where did you get your statistics from, in order to fact check your comment @tarmacdaddy1….
@@MrRasZeefacts do not have feelings, where are the statistic supporting this comment
This gentleman is a complete waste of space . And the lady beside him gets well in excess of ONE MILLION DOLLARS per year
Out of public funds. Add willie jackson, john Tamahiri, fiddled 750 THOUSAND DOLLARS. Out of a charity intended for poor maori. The entire Mahuta family. And awateri/huarta back on the take. The O'Regan family. Not much left for maori at the bottom . Do you think,???. 😮
You covered it ... these elitists, plus the $80 underpants man, are only there to milk it for themselves.
OK I just want to have a say on this. He has just said "He's just catering to a certain demographic that don't want to see Maori achieving anything, and that we are all assimilated, and we are all kiwi's, when we are not". He also mentions about how he wants to decolonize the nation and they should be in the middle of all the decision making when it comes to policies. Also he claims that the political system is racist and is built to make sure Maori are being oppressed. He is also wearing a cowboy hat. . . which is the result of colonization and in a way is representing the American expansion into the west of northern America which also resulted in the eradication on the Native Americans nearly into extinction.
I'm sorry but everything he is saying is extremely racist towards Pakeha, So how does fighting racism with more racism help anything exactly? Because if a large number of Maori are younger generation Maori, does this not just create a new generation of Maori that hate Pakeha and would gladly see us removed from the equation? If your issue is with the system and the government I think you'll find that most Pakeha also agree with a lot of what he is saying, but don't bring the people into it, a lot of us don't think the way that we are being stereotyped by Rawiri, maybe 50 years ago yeah sure but that's not the case these days.
What did he say that was racist towards pākehā ?
Racism is a form of prejudice that assumes that the members of racial categories have distinctive characteristics and that these differences result in some racial groups being inferior to others. Racism generally includes negative emotional reactions to members of the group, acceptance of negative stereotypes, and racial discrimination against individuals; in some cases it leads to violence.
Discrimination refers to the differential treatment of the members of different ethnic, religious, national, or other groups. Discrimination is usually the behavioral manifestation of prejudice and therefore involves negative, hostile, and injurious treatment of members of rejected groups.
Because he in generalizing Pakeha by saying things like "He's just catering to a certain demographic that don't want to see Maori achieving anything, and that we are all assimilated, and we are all kiwi's, when we are not". He's saying this as if ALL Pakeha think this way, then he goes on to talk about WW2 as being "The white mans war we didn't want anything to do with". I'm sorry but WW2 was not a white mans war, it was everyone's war, and I'll tell you right now, If Japan had made their way here because we didn't fight, there wouldn't be any Maori or Pakeha here. It's just his generalization of things that white people do, that's being racist, and guess what? Yes you can be racist towards white people which is exactly what this is. If you replaced what he says about Pakeha with Maori, you'd be getting screamed at for being racist 100%. @@bens4241
I'll answer your points in order, 1st he doesn't refer to Pakeha as being the demographic that don't want to see māori achieving anything, that would be referring to NZF supporters rather than all pakeha. @@ElusivGaming WW1 is the war that is generally referred too as the white mans war and Māori Opposition to this, in particular through followers of Rua Kenana, resulted in raids being carried out at Maungapohatu. generally racism is also defined through power and the structures that hold those power oppressing those who do not control those structures. This typically results in racism being unable to occur towards white people at least within countries where a white majority holds the power(in particular in settler colonial states) though prejudice can occur between any group or individual.
@@bens4241 Ok thanks for the clarification, none of this is made clear by him though is it? Cus all this does is perpetuate this cycle of oppression and victimhood, you have to think about what young generation take away from this.
Please inform me on how you came to interpret Rawiri's hat as representing the absolute sh*t show that took place in the Americas many moons ago and how does a hat represent colonization?
Hard to listen to past 7 minutes
Oh dear😢
😂
2017 showed that our people lost confidence in the Maori party, Hence why they lost their seats.
i dont see Trump as racist not at all Hitler is a different story lol😆
Lmao the same guy that had a white supremacist and kanye west in one room together 😂
It's a dirtbag jamboree and it's 31 minutes too long
Eager to hear more from Rāwiri, whose insights into poverty and living costs are genuinely enlightening! It's a pity that the Maori Party’s vital voices are often muted in mainstream media.
Optimistically looking toward Wini, his consistent support for valuable Māori kaupapa is noteworthy, despite his strategic plays to red-necks and pronounced support for Tai Tokerau in the past.
Maimoatia ngā hua katoa i te māra o te ora - let's cherish all the fruits in the garden of life! 😄
Good luck e hoa.
The brain of a chocolate fish. No offence intended to other chocolate fish.
Listen to this guy list off all of the Māori only policies they have influenced. Still isn’t happy. Never will be
Hi dear.
I hope you are well.
I saw your channel video.Your video is great but your video optimization is not very good. If your video has no views, your content is so good, you can easily become successful
1. SEO score is very low
2. No title- description- tags are SEO friendly
3. Social media platforms are not shared and many problems with your TH-cam channel urgently need SEO for TH-cam channel.
I am waiting for your response.
Thank you
❤🎉
Great discussion, very informative on Te Pati Maoris stance.
I think Rawiri is a Maori icon for sure.
I'd like to see more of him on other Platforms
Nah! He is only good for pushing the 'anti-colonialism, victim hood card. The irony is; he is personally $$ from a colonialist culture.
I find his speech quite racists, for a politician, ironic, but i guess he only cares about his 3% of voters, or perhaps up to 20%.. if you fit his ethnicity. mmmm.. shame. I can't help but see TPM as a racist organisation - NZ is a multicultural country - not bicultural, two people ideas belong in the past. that said, i did quite like their personal tax policies
So promising! The vision is clear and the one statement that should be of interest in this interview is that they bring "humanity to politics" which as he says is transformative and what society says they want more of in government.
jacindas socialist revolution lost . get over bit
@MrRasZee sounds like a comment that came out of a book. I love seeing humanity in Govt. Floats my boat and brings me joy. It inspires me to insert that within the space I work with. The result is research on the needs of vulnerable that informs the strategy of how they interact with the community. It feels so good. I hope your world is going well. Would love to hear the impact you're making.
@@moanarangi8149 my impact i voted out the useless socialist comunist jacinda . big impact . they wont be back for a long while
No co governence now aye rawiri.cucumber sandwich not for you.boil up instead for you.long live national.
Wow, Rawiri super articulate/clear/concise (appreciated from a politician, I can't make heads or tails of national or act policy...!?), broad (wide policy focus) and very long term strategy planned out imho very well (speaking as a pakeha, so just sending good vibes haha) love it, KIA KAHA!!!
