Māori, Pasifika lawyers face racism, bullying - survey

A Fijian lawyer says being "an intelligent woman of colour" (her own words) is a curse and she experiences racism in the industry every day. A recent Law Society workplace environment survey shows more than a third of Pasifika and Maori lawyers have been bullied in the past six months. But only six complaints of racism in the profession have been lodged with the society in the past six months.
