1A Question of Culture Maori who have had enough of being told they're victims of history - a look at the policy of Closing the Gaps. The racial focus on the policy is tarnishing all Maoris with the same brush. This programme focuses on successful, contented Maori people who are proud of their culture and heritage but want to embrace a positive future within a multi-cultural NZ setting. What impact is all the negativity towards Maori having on society and the Maori culture and population?
