Or sometimes - life stories by Big Nanna, Jacinta Price (including her mother) and so many others are extremely difficult to relate (over many generations of abuse within Aboriginal Culture) in an open forum for fear of retribution of others who don't wish to engage - due to Activists.
The "silent majority" of Australians - want their stories to be told of abuses to "our innocent children" exposed, whereby Activists wish to hide.
The above stated people (and so many others) being the "leaders" to reform in addressing abuse to women and children within the families.
In the past many of these people have been called "traitors" to their culture by their Indigenous people.
Recently while a "Black Lives Matter" march was in progress in Sydney - and during Covid-19 restrictions, which didn't matter to them.
and while Australia's economy is being brought into melt down - didn't matter to these protesters.
Jacinta Price was comforting a family member who was beaten into a coma by her partner.
Australians can't comment on Indigenous domestic violence as we are continually "shut down" - by activists.
Seriously, Australia - it's time to wake up and stand up for all children in indigenous communities.
No child asked to be born, all children, deserve the right to be brought up in a "safe environment" in order to achieve their dreams.
