Gisborne iwi setting the record straight on Captain Cook

From Morning Report, 7:43 am on 7 October 2019

Gisborne iwi are setting the record straight on Captain Cook, describing their ancestors' first experience of the British as collisions not encounters. They say previous commemorations to mark the 150th and 200th anniversaries of James Cook's arrival in Aotearoa did not mention the nine people who were killed by the Endeavour crew.
