Pakeha

To be honest my first thought was “wanker” - having had the privileges of a pakeha upbringing, now it was considered almost trendy to claim indigenous roots, what rights did he have to call himself Maori when it suited him? ❋ Another Outspoken Female (2008)

If anyone to whom this applies happens to come across this post, as part of trying to source more local content, I'm also looking for work by New Zealanders - Maori, pakeha, and everyone else. ❋ Unknown (2007)

I found one version of the story which says he is "Professor Moon, a professor of pakeha white people's history". ❋ StyleyGeek (2008)

Oh, and on the subject of pakeha history - I would assume someone who was specialised in Pakeha history to be an authority on white settlers in New Zealand, and on New Zealand history from a distinctly pakeha point of view. ❋ StyleyGeek (2008)

•New Zealand English has absorbed a few Maori words, like pakeha pah-KEE-hah, which means “white skin” and describes Europeans. ❋ MARY MURRAY BOSROCK (2007)

I might have failed to mention that even here, racist distinctions were made--pakeha (European) were shoved around and subjected to property damage, but the police actually locked down an entire Māori community (Ruatoki) and terrorized the population. ❋ Unknown (2007)

One thinks of the Maori haka performed in front of legions of pakeha, having lost much of its original significance but having gained a different significance, or the Inuit values of survival now codified as Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The reason why we people who are maori give such hight remarks to our occupiers "the white man" or as we would put it, "the pakeha". ❋ Unknown (2007)

There are Maori here though, that complain about the ‘pakeha education system’ not working for Maori, yet these very people got their education and became lawyers and politicians and teachers through the very system that they now say does not work. ❋ Unknown (2005)

And when you consider you're staring down a dozen hulking polynesians and a couple of pakeha that aren't exactly small either, it's no wonder no ones tried to be more confrontational. ❋ Rogers (2006)

But it was impossible to doubt that they were speaking truth when, in answer to Hugh's anxious questioning, they declared that no _pakeha_ (white man) had been near the _kainga_, and that they had seen nothing of Horoeka, their ❋ Various (N/A)

"Yes," responded Hugh, "and even then the beggars have the impudence to swear, in the teeth of their talk last night in their _wharé-runanga_, that Horoeka only meant to give the _pakeha_ boy a good fright because he had done a mischief to the very _tapu_-tree in which lives the spirit of the tribe's great ancestor." ❋ Various (N/A)

Hugh, who had a very fair knowledge of the Maori tongue, warned the natives that the _pakeha_ law would punish them severely if they knowingly allowed his young brother to be harmed. ❋ Various (N/A)

In the course of a conversation with Te Pokiha at the hotel Alleyn had learned that he had this tiki to dispose of for a pakeha a white man — who was hard up. ❋ Marsh, Ngaio, 1895-1982 (1937)

Te Pokiha had said that if it had been his own possession he would never have parted with it, but the pakeha was very hard up. ❋ Marsh, Ngaio, 1895-1982 (1937)

He was a strong man, in the prime of life, and if any pakeha [European] freethinker should have said he was not killed by the tapu of the chief, which had been communicated to the food by contact, he would have been listened to with feelings of contempt for his ignorance and inability to understand plain and direct evidence. ❋ Unknown (1922)
