Today's Video Focus: Captain Cook arrived in New Zealand exactly 250 years ago, leading the
first European fleet to reach its shores.
New Zealand (or Aotearoa) is marking the anniversary in a big way, but
Maori activist Tina Ngata says there is little to celebrate.
She says Maori people are disproportionately poor, in jail and
discriminated against, and that this all has its roots in New Zealand's
colonial past.
