In colonised countries, why do barriers persist between indigenous and non-indigenous people in creating mutually beneficial and socially just relationships?
Alex tackles the concept of "Pakeha Paralysis" and explores the fear of failure that can get in the way of fostering and restoring honourable cross-cultural relationships.
Alex is Pakeha, he is of European descent and calls New Zealand home. He is also a product of the Kaupapa Maori indigenous educational movement which was started in resistance to a mono-cultural European educational system.
Alex is an educator who is speaking up about the barriers to socially and culturally just relationships.
