Notes

Kiwi is a deep dive into New Zealand's curious national identity. Cultural author and avid Kiwiana collector Richard Wolfe explores the evolution of kiwi from the Maori name of a secretive bird to its many uses today-- renaming a fruit native to China, signifying a New Zealander, and a powerful term in national and international branding. Kiwi presents some outlandish stories, tales of cultural appropriation and recognition of Kiwi around the world.
