First person - As a fair-skinned wahine dancing between a Māori and Pākehā world, Ella Stewart (Ngāpuhi), has been told she's lying about her ethnicity and constantly asked what 'percentage' Māori she is.

We find a sepia-toned photograph of my ancestors in a dusty box, sitting dormant at the top of the wardrobe. A photograph of the people I came from, standing in a line, smiling and waiting for the picture to be taken.

"Look how Māori they all look," my mum exclaims.

But what does that mean? What does being Māori look like? Maybe a Pākehā, stereotyping, would think it's tanned, brown skin and long, dark hair. Or specifically shaped lips or a round nose. But for me, a fair-skinned wahine, the way I look is nowhere near as important as my whakapapa and the people I came from.

Did You Know?: In New Zealand, Whites are referred to by the Māori term, Pākehā. Which translates as White Faced Pig.

Growing up, I always knew I was Māori. When I was younger my cultural identity felt inherently natural to me. My big sister and I were born to a strong, fierce, outspoken Ngāpuhi mother and a kind, protective and generous English father from Liverpool. But I'm white. Pale, porcelain skin with freckles, bright orange hair and blue eyes. And although my skin colour wasn't something I used to think about, as I got older, I began to feel that my whakapapa was a secret I had to hide.

Blah blah blah. Wah wah wah wahine ... 

I can't count the number of times people have asked me what 'percent' Māori I am. As if my body could be divided in parts, my right arm and leg are Māori, but my head, ears and other arm are all European.

The idea of blood quantum is a very westernised and colonial way of thinking. The ideology was first created by the American government to track Native Americans' racial status and ancestry and define their legal rights. Blood quantum laws were implemented in the Virginia colony in 1705. Anyone who possessed half or greater Native American blood had limited civil rights. In 1934, the federal government introduced the Indian Reorganisation Act which saw Native American tribes begin to formally use blood quantum law requirements for indigenous peoples to gain tribal citizenship, financial benefits, and the use of collective resources.

Blood quantum ideology has also previously been used in Aotearoa. Until 1974, when the New Zealand government passed the Māori Affairs Amendment Act, to be Māori was defined as having "half or more blood". However, this was loosely applied and there was no requirement of ancestral proof. Blood quantum was used by the government to determine which electoral roll you were eligible to vote on. After 1974, anyone with Māori heritage was entitled to identify as Māori.

But let's be clear, there is no checklist. If you whakapapa Māori, then you're Māori.

It's their parents' fault for creating these hybrid mutants. A hybrid has massive psychological damage because they never fit in anywhere, because they don't belong to either group, but will always claim the mud side - which is fine with us. They are like a drowning man. They try take everyone down with them and are the biggest supporters of mixing the race's to tear down Our beauty and intelligence. They go through there whole life feeling inadequate without a sense of purpose, because Nature let's them know they are a abomination.

You'll never see a lion naturally mating with a tiger, because Nature declares that's an abomination and has terrible results for both species. We are part of Nature not above it, like the try teach you in christinsanity. We can no more go against Nature's laws and not suffer the consequences just like any other species on this earth.

If I'm out and about at shopping centres or wherever doing my business I've noticed when you do see a race mixed couple, they are so paranoid always looking around them. Always paranoid - that's because they know deep down what they are doing is wrong - because when I go places with my girlfriend, what's there to be paranoid about? Because I'm not breaking Nature's laws that's why. I've seen those traitors out and about pushing their pram around with there little half-human half-animal in it, but thankfully race mixing isn't as big as the propaganda suggests. And when you don't watch TV - as you shouldn't - you hardly see it, thankfully.

Hook your internet up to your TV screen and you'll be much happier on a daily basis. There's no need for the electric Jew in your house. 23 R

And the mixed garbage always suffers from very low iq and diminished mental capacity. They land in jail or hell.
