THE 
Thanks for this clarification. Having given the matter some thought, and having
consulted with another senior academic, I have decided that I will withdraw from the
OFFICIAL 
scheduled speaking event on 12 February 2025 at the National Library.
The person from the National Library who wants to remove a quote from the
paragraph in question clearly has little conception of the nature of British colonial
policy in the nineteenth century (something I have been researching for the past 30
years), but putting that aside, the attempt to compel the content of a speaker in this
INFORMATON 
context is appalling, and not the first occasion this has occurred (you will recall that a
few months ago, I was asked by the Library to remove the word ‘whakapapa’ from a
summary of my presentation). Given the Library’s manifest aversion to free speech, I
have no option but to cancel my involvement.
I very much appreciate the work you put into this, and readily acknowledge that the
efforts at censorship do not stem from you.

I think it is less the authenticity of the quote than the statement it makes that is of concern. It
could be seen as us agreeing with Britain conquering the world… ? These days everything can be
read as political. Personally, I saw nothing wrong with the quote, but I’m passing on the
director’s wish to have it taken out. Hopefully, this can be easily done.

I hope this email finds you well. 9(2)(g)(ii)
. Looking
forward to finishing up for the year on 20 Dec 
 
Could I please ask you to make some changes to the proposed event listing below? Our director
wasn’t keen on the quote, so perhaps that could be replaced by a sentence or two relating to ACT
what you will talk about and mentioning some of the key personalities? The title has also been
edited (by our Comms department). I’m sorry for all the back and forth and hope you don’t mind
reworking this. Here is the draft text:
 
“E oho! Pre-Treaty personalities and policies – a European focus”
 
In 1883, the British historian John Seeley famously remarked that the British Empire had
"conquered and peopled half the world in a fit of absence of mind". The assessment may seem
flippant, but it is seldom far from the surface when surveying the contours of European interest in
New Zealand leading up to the Treaty of Waitangi (1840). What was the engine of this
involvement? And how was it that in so many cases, personalities triumphed over policies? This
talk will focus on the key stages leading up to Britain’s decision to conclude a Treaty with the
chiefs of Aotearoa New Zealand, and in the process, reveal something of the methods and
motives of those involved in the preceding two centuries of European intervention.
 
One of my colleagues who is responsible for publishing events on our website will be on leave
from tomorrow. If there is any chance you could get back to me by this afternoon, that would be
wonderful.

Here is the official invitation with more information about the event:
 
The National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa would like to invite you to speak in 2025. We would work with you to shape the event
and align the kaupapa to your area of expertise. Working title is ‘E oho! The European drafters of the Treaty and their motivations’. The date that we have
scheduled is Wednesday, 12 February from 12.10pm till 1.30pm. If this date and time does not work with you, please let us know what date(s) work instead. 
This event is part of our E oho! Waitangi series. Our ‘E oho!’ series aims to lay the foundation for all people living in Aotearoa by exploring key events that
shaped the nation we call home.  t's a series that platforms speakers from diverse backgrounds who focus on historical events, contemporary consequences
and collective understanding. Each event entails inspiring talks and the opportunity to kōrero further afterwards.
To get a feel for the format and discussions we foster you can scroll through previous E oho! topics and speakers here or watch the recorded events.
ACT
If you are interested, here is some more information about the kaupapa:
 
Platform
You have agreed to come to Wellington in-person and self-fund your return trip. In this case, the public event will be delivered in-person in our Taiwhanga
Kauhau Auditorium and it will also be livestreamed via Zoom Webinar (participants do not need Zoom to watch).
How it will run
We will set up a meeting with you beforehand and walk you through how our events typically run and answer any questions you may have.
On the day, we start the E oho! event with karakia, mihi and waiata and also close with karakia. A National Library staff member will introduce the event
kaupapa, and then hand over to you to deliver your talk for about 40-45min. Speakers typically wrap up at around 1 00pm, allowing for 20-30 minutes of
Q&A with our audience.
