Girl I’m Māori too and my Indian in laws call me white and it boils my blooood! My partner tried to educate them on what indigenous means and they literally do not get it, they can’t comprehend what is even means 😭😭😭

ELAINE 🇵🇪 :
um ..... you are white, somewhere in your ancestry. not diminishing you're Maori since that's what you culturally are. also, Africa has their different viewpoints. I'm indigenous from Americas & Im pretty sure I'll still be considered "white" to them. I don't necessarily mean they actually mean "white" - i think Africa goes based more on skin complexion. (someone correct me if I'm wrong) rather than facial features & skin complexion.

Whānau, I used the word Palangi because in my experience it Carrie’s more offence than pakeha, and that’s how it felt being call white person in their native tongue is all

That’s very South African, we respect each others cultures. You’re already 80% there. Also if you explain your identity, we respect that too we won’t push our assumptions on you once you clear it up

It was very interesting. I went to Uganda and I was a “muzungu” which translates to “being lost” If any Ugandan see this comment correct me! When I had conversations I was considered “white” and I was so offended! Lmao but of course I understand now. I’m Cree from Alberta Canada.
