This subject is dear to Radio NZ presenter Chris Laidlaw’s heart and it’s the second time he’s invited Prudence Stone to talk about the colour black on his show. The first time was back in 2007 when she was still finalizing her arguments, and Chris was keen to promote the idea of a new New Zealand flag. In this interview, Chris (who for those who don’t know, was once an All Black and is renowned as a controversial historian of the sport) spans the book’s subject matter, questioning the author for clues on why New Zealand is a particular hotbed of black symbolic meaning. http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/sunday/audio/2568510/prudence-stone-black-inc
