On Saturday, Acknowledgement or apology? Maori Party and Labour’s Maori MPs have been tussling this week about how far the crown needs to go to say sorry for the damage done by a century-long campaign against te reo Maori that formed part of the Maori experience of colonisation. In Korero Mai Ki Ahau on Saturday, Eruera Morgan talks with Labour’s Peeni Henare about the last minute acknowledgement added to the te Reo Maori Bill, and how actions will speak louder than words.

On Sunday, Eruera Morgan will also speak with educationalist and former Maori Party president Pem Bird about the Education’s objections to including the New Zealand Wars in the school curriculum, despite a petition from schoolchildren who want to learn more about the events that have shaped their reality.

Korero Mai Ki Ahau a half hour features programme every Saturday and Sunday from noon, which takes an in – depth look at issues affecting te ao Maori. Totally in te reo Maori brought to you by Waatea News in association with Te Mangai Paho.
Ma Waatea ma te reo hei whakamarama
