Becoming Tangata Tiriti brings together the stories of twelve non-Māori New Zealanders navigating life in a changing Aotearoa.

Through their work and everyday lives, these professionals, activists and individuals have engaged with te ao Māori and sought to bring te Tiriti o Waitangi to life.

Their experiences reveal missteps, hard-earned victories and the complexities of cross-cultural relationships. Sociologist Avril Bell draws out the lessons in these journeys, asking: Who are we as tangata tiriti? How do we understand ourselves in relation to Māori? What are our responsibilities to te Tiriti, and how do we respond when we stumble along the way?

Featuring voices including Meng Foon and Andrew Judd, this concise paperback offers an accessible starting point for those working towards a Tiriti-based society, and a thoughtful refresher for those already on the path.
