How much does that depend on being white and having money?
Pretty much the same as everywhere else unfortunately.
We might be slightly better about it now, but the legacy remains.
Most of it, everywhere, all the time.
yeah but if you’re Māori is it even worse?
In NZ if you ain't Maori it's worse.
I've never meet a single NZ, irrespective of their ability to absorb or reflect UV, that didn't claim a percentage of Maori ancestry.
Although 50-60 plus years ago shit was bad.
Now everyone is equally discriminated against in NZ if you don't have money
Being white is better in most places.
I guess until it’s not we shouldn’t cross that out
