"The future of the Māori seats matters a lot for our country, Pākehā and Māori alike. But if we are going to debate that future, we need to do so with a clear understanding of how Māori really view these seats and what else Māori might want from political representation." - thespinoff.co.nz Professor Andrew Geddis outlines the history of the Māori seats alongside the various arguments for and against their inclusion in our electoral system. Co hosted by Seonaid Lewis on behalf of Auckland Libraries and Michelle Patient who appears courtesy of Ancestry ProGenealogists. Originally presented as a webinar and recorded on June 22 2020.
