Some colonised cultures were destroyed. Maori culture was not. In fact, it is arguably stronger now than at any time in the last 100 years. It’s a complicated issue. Grownups can talk about complicated issues. Nothing Goldsmith said in that Stuff piece offends me. In fact I find his position - that for an education spokesman, fixing what’s broken in NZ’s education system and preparing NZ children for the challenges of the 21st century are more important than fixating on imported American “culture war” narratives - to be common sense.
