lol. Well given that I have extended family living in New Zealand who are Māori (ngati te wharetoa for the most part) I can tell you that they don’t always feel their culture is cherished. They regularly report on racial profiling and the challenges in getting a lot of basics met and micro and more obvious aggressions towards their culture.
that doesn’t mean that things aren’t in place that might seem better - Māori is an official language and has been since around 1987. They properly fund kohunga rep (language nests) and nzers have a special
place for the haka and kapa haka. But calling that cherished really is a bit of an exaggeration
oh btw I don’t claim to know it all so your retort at the end of your post is churlish and childish. Don’t you like people having a different opinion from you on some things. Of course your retort also suggest you think you know better but there we are maybe you are just indulging in projection.
