Whoever wishes to foresee the future must consult the past; for human events ever resemble those of preceding times. This is a quote from Machiavelli about the importance of understanding our history.Aotearoa New Zealand, like all nations, must grapple with its past if it intends to avoid repeating its mistakes. With the introduction of Act Party's Treaty Principles Bill, the discussion around Te Tiriti has come to a head. On one side of the argument, the current interpretation of te tiriti has gone too far, on the other, not far enough.To understand this further, I wanted to learn more about New Zealand's history: how colonisation occurred, the context with which te tiriti and the treaty were signed, and the implication of what happened in the 1800s and how this affects people today.So on this episode I bring you Professor Paul Moon, Officer of NZ Order of Merit. Paul is a historian and professor at Auckland University of Technology who has devoted his career to researching New Zealand History, Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and British Colonisation. He is an avid author and written many books on early NZ history and biographies of both British settlers and Maori rangatira.I also speak to Paul about the recently developed NZ history curriculum as well as the state of our Universities and academia. Are we creating environments for freedom of thought, exploration and expression? Or has challenging the orthodoxy become a social faux-pas?

Schools began implementing the compulsory Aotearoa New Zealand Histories Curriculum at the beginning of 2023. By focusing on four key ideas – Māori history as the foundational history of New Zealand, colonisation, the use of power, and relationships and connections between people – the curriculum intends to teach students from Years 1-10 to understand the big ideas, know the contexts, and do inquiry practises. Last week, the Education Review Office released a report on how the curriculum's first year has been received. Producer Sofia Roger Williams spoke to Kaiārahi for the New Zealand History Teachers Association, Craig Thornhill, about some of the commentary from parliament that has emerged, and how the implementation of Aotearoa New Zealand Histories has been received by students and teachers so far.
The Education Review Office has found teachers are overwhelmed by the scale of change in teaching the new history curriculum. Teaching New Zealand's histories became a requirement for students in years one to ten at the start of last year. The report found schools are finding it challenging and time consuming, often struggling to understand what's required. Kay is a former head of Social Science with a specialty in commerce teaching, and although she hasn't taught social studies since 2000, was shocked at the vagueness of the previous curriculum. “When I came into being head of Social Science, it was a nine sentence curriculum,” she told Kerre Woodham. “What it resulted in was such a huge range of knowledge and skills being taught across New Zealand.” She said that she was glad when Labour said they were going to review it and add specifics for teaching New Zealand history, but what they did was “unbelievably a mess”. “The new curriculum is so much New Zealand History that it lacks space within any given year for a teacher to teach anything except New Zealand History.” “There's so much missing it's not funny.” Kay told Kerre that teachers were giving feedback over and over as Labour made their changes, and they weren't listened to. “It's just been an absolute shambles.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Em and Caz shine some light on biblical figures who are “disappeared” when their victimization and violation are overlooked or ignored by readers of the Bible. They focus particularly on biblical narratives of genocide, colonialism, wartime rape, and sex trafficking, making connections with more recent examples of these various forms of violence. They also take a deep dive into “missing white woman syndrome,” exploring the ways that some victims of violence - both biblical and contemporary - are “disappeared” by virtue of their being painted as less “worthy” of attention than others.Find us on Twitter @BloodyBiblePod, on Facebook @TheBloodyBiblePodcast, and on Instagram @bloodybiblepodcast.

‘What a nation or society chooses to remember and forget speaks to its contemporary priorities and sense of identity. Understanding how that process works enables us to better imagine a future with a different, or wider, set of priorities.' History has rarely felt more topical or relevant as, all across the globe, nations have begun to debate who, how and what they choose to remember and forget. In this BWB Text addressing ‘difficult histories', a team of five researchers, several from iwi invaded or attacked during the nineteenth-century New Zealand Wars, reflect on these questions of memory and loss locally. Combining first-hand fieldnotes from their journeys to sites of conflict and contestation with innovative archival and oral research exploring the gaps and silences in the ways we engage with the past, Fragments from a Contested Past: Remembrance, Denial and New Zealand History (Bridget Williams Books, 2022) investigates how these events are remembered – or not – and how this has shaped the modern New Zealand nation. Liana MacDonald (Ngāti Kuia, Rangitāne o Wairau, Ngāti Koata) is a lecturer in the Faculty of Education, Victoria University of Wellington. She is interested in how racism, whiteness, and settler colonialism manifest in national institutions.

This week my (New Zealand) Government announced New Zealand schools would be teaching New Zealand History to all children. This IS actually quite an accomplishment - a lot of younger kids get little to no history at all, and those who take the subject as an elective option often don't even touch on our own country. It only seems fitting to do a New Zealand Tale this week. What can one say about New Zealand and the act of Pseudocide - faking one's own death to start anew elsewhere? Quite a bit it turns out… The blog post of the episode is here. Support the show on Patreon for just $2 a month and get access to exclusive content.

The final curriculum for teaching Aotearoa's history in schools is out, but what will students actually learn and how will they learn it?
From next year every student from years 1–10 will be taught New Zealand history in schools. The Prime Minister today announced the new curriculums that would ensure a greater understanding of Aotearoa and national identity. The new curriculum will focus on areas such as refugees, Pacific peoples, Chinese histories and colonisation. Act Party leader David Seymour has called it divisive and all about colonisation. Graeme Ball, the chair of the NZ History Teachers Association is calling it the right balance. David Seymour and Graeme Ball joined Andrew Dickens. LISTEN ABOVE

New Zealand's singing, dancing and laughing its way toward raising vaccination rates.A special "vaxathon" will be splashed across Kiwis TV screens from midday to eight-pm to celebrate "Super Saturday".The national day of action is planned as a last push to get jabs into arms, with a goal to vaccinate 100,000 people.The vaxathon — which will be fronted by celebrities and health experts — will capture the action at vaccine sites nationwide.One of the hosts, Patrick Gower, has laughed off Heather du Plessis-Allan's concerns it will be a disaster and a bit lame.“You are going to be proven totally, totally wrong by that because I haven't been involved in anything lame ever. And I think it'll be the exact opposite. I think it'll be a magical moment in New Zealand history.”LISTEN ABOVE
