“Once you’ve seen the reality of considering ethnicity and the impact that can be made when we consider it, that’s not something easily unlearned. You can try to ignore the evidence, but you can’t deny its existence.” — Dr Anthony Jordan, former Pharmac director.

An online Sunday magazine specialising in stories that reflect the experiences of Māori and Pasifika in Aotearoa.
About us
E-Tangata is an online Sunday magazine run by the Mana Trust, which is dedicated to building a stronger Māori and Pacific presence in the New Zealand media. The website is not-for-profit and is largely a labour of love by a part-time team of accomplished journalists and writers who want to see, throughout the mainstream media, a more balanced and better informed reflection of New Zealand lives and issues. We’re doing our part by specialising in stories that get to the heart of what it means to be Māori or Pacific in Aotearoa.
