Sad commentary
Unfortunately, Maori who don't know any better have been thoroughly duped into playing right into the stereo-typical understanding of this country's indigenous culture. Arohamai!
When there are numerous Maori both here and abroad who are wealthy, educated and holding significant positions of influence both here and abroad, The GC is yet another sad commentary on how certain strata of Maori are completely unaware that they are continuing to prop up the general "loser" mentality that reigns supreme about them in Aotearoa.
These young men are probably most affable, simply adding insult to injury when you consider they don't even get paid, while the blue-eyed blonde responsible for supporting Black Ink Media's production only adds to her "squillions" off the backs of the young and the ignorant in yet another trashy American format.
This is an incredibly sad day for all who have fought long and hard on behalf of Maori. Gutted!
