I want to acknowledge the research of Dr Keri Mills, a professor at Auckland University of Technology in Auckland. She's written a large amount of academic research that shares the story of our Moriori whānau that are here with us today, that attempts to put right and correct history. When I grew up, I was one of those people that didn't know that our whānau existed. Today, I want to acknowledge my shortcomings in this, in that my learnings weren't accurate, but the research that Dr Keri Mills starts to talk about is the shortcomings in our education system up until the late 1960s.
