Series Classification: G (General Audiences)
Until he became the mayor of New Plymouth, Andrew Judd had never been on a marae. Recognising his own racism set him on a course of campaigning for Māori representation -- but even our laws and policies are built on racist ideas.

How do white New Zealanders overcome feelings of guilt in order to take positive action against racism in Aotearoa?
Land of the Long White cloud is a seven-part documentary web series that tells the stories of New Zealanders reflecting on their colonial heritage and white guilt, and the ways they push through to find a healthier Pākehā identity.
An anti-racism conversation timed to coincide with the 250-year anniversary of Captain Cook's arrival in Aotearoa. Racism is a white problem, and the onus is on white New Zealanders to look at ourselves.

Powerful korero. It highlights the unfairness but also delivers a insightful look through Andrew's viewpoint and realization.
Big ups to you Andrew
