When you add the dimension of the negative space, the image takes on new life. A typical coloring book contains designs that are made up of shapes and forms, but of only one type of space.

This story chronicles the efforts of the Kia Aroha College community on its quest to step outside education’s "White spaces" to create a new space for learning and to reclaim educational sovereignty-where individuals have the absolute right to "be Maori," to be who they are, in school. This journey is juxtaposed against pervasive deficit-driven, whitestream explanations of inequity and purported "achievement gaps" of indigenous Maori and Pasifika students. To challenge such whitestreaming, this book offers the example of a community that defied and rejected this environment in favor of a culturally-located, bilingual learning model of education based on secure cultural identity, stable positive relationships, and aroha (authentic caring and love). Children by this are taught about the place of color and the importance of staying within pre-determined boundaries and expectations, reinforcing a system where the white background is considered the norm. But they’re not actually blank-each page is uniformly white, with lines established to dictate where color is allowed to go. If we look at an untouched child’s coloring book, for instance, we think of the pages as blank. This book examines the struggle against racial and cultural inequity in educational systems, presenting the case study of a New Zealand school and its community’s determination to resist alienating environments.
